unconscionably smug movie with annoying characters

Rating: Null/10 (21 July 2011)

This is an unconscionably smug movie. Smug characters. Smug tone. Smug subject matter, and smug condescension towards its audience. It's infatuated with its own cleverness, staring adoringly at the rampant cynicism that propels it. Certainly, there's nothing wrong with cynicism, but every single character seems like an annoying caricature. After the first hour, it really starts to grate on the nerves. Sure, the leads are pleasant to look at for each of the sexes but Milia's part is all tease for the viewer. It's a sex comedy without the T & A payoff and that only adds to the frustration and my contempt for this horrible horrible movie going experience. No one else needs waste money on this film to experience what I had to endure.
