Entertaining and sweet

Rating: 8/10 (12 August 2013)

Given the average ratings, I was prepared to be disappointed but I really enjoyed this rom-com! Andie's annoying tactics were really entertaining, from insisting on a diet coke during the final minutes of a basketball game to showing up at Ben's house during their boys' only night. The part where Ben proposes couple counselling with Andie's colleague posing as the therapist was just hilarious! It was also quite heartwarming to see her melting upon being welcomed so warmly into his family. The blow-up at the end was pretty funny, where they sang 'You're Vain' as a duet and tried to get back at each other. I don't think it was very believable that they'd behave in such a manner given that the dinner was in a professional setting, but it wasn't too much of a stretch. The final scene of Ben chasing Andie's taxi upon reading her article was somewhat exaggerated, but still considered a decent ending!
