Disappointed

Rating: 5/10 (11 December 2006)

This movie was nowhere near as good as I thought it would be. It really dragged on forever and at 135 minutes was way too long. It was great, however, to see Kate Winslet branch out into modern romantic comedies as opposed to the period piece stuff she usually does. She is really the standout in this movie and should do more of this type of role. Cameron Diaz is playing basically the same great, successful career girl character she always plays ("Something About Mary", "The Sweetest Thing", "Charlie's Angels") . Jude Law and Jack Black serve their purpose in the traditional "girlfriend" role, as Diaz and Winslet are the leads. Loved Eli Wallach in a supporting role...
