A sucker for Paul Rudd and anything he is involved in.....Paul Rudd is everyone's boyfriend...this movie still sucked hard. I guess I get what it was going for?? A romantic comedy about white people and their problems gah. But usually I can take a film for what it is and just enjoy it. This however was not the case...
Reese Witherspoon plays an athlete on the down fall of her career. She's too old to play competitively and now must find a new passion in life. Owen Wilson plays a successful athlete who is full of himself but does actually care for Reese's character..in his own way. Paul Rudd!!!! plays a business guy who is being indicted and may lose everything, and Jack Nicholson plays his father.
The story line made sense but I honestly failed to connect with any of the characters. It was like all the actors played their characters how they wanted too without the director forcing them to do it the way he probably visioned it. It's hard to explain but I feel like each day they went to set and did their lines and went home. Nobody took the initiative to become their character or do more with the script then they absolutely had too for a check. My biggest pet peeve in the film was I failed to see how anyone fell in love with anyone! If this is how people fall in love well count me out! I rather be the old bitchy lady with a million dogs barking all night then have NO ROMANCE.
This was an extremely forgettable movie which sucks because it had such a potential cast. I don't blame the script or anything...I just think nobody actually tried in this film which pisses me off because I actually paid to see it! It's like I went to the teller and said "I'd like to see this movie but ehhhh I'll watch it for free." You think he gives a damn whether I want to pay or not! So Reese, Owen, Jack, and yes you too my boyfriend PAUL! I don't care if you want to act today or not...just do what the fuck you're supposed to do!
3/10 losers
Free Joke! How does Reese eat soup??? With her spoon! Ahahahahahahahah
