There's nothing ugly about The Ugly Truth...

Rating: 8/10 (23 November 2009)

Gerard Butler and Katherine Heigl team up for this incredibly romantic and touching romantic comedy where two people, worlds apart, find a way to come together.
Gerard Butler plays Mike Chadway, host of "The Ugly Truth", who likes to tell people the harsh truth about relationships, men and ultimately, the flaws of women. Katherine counter acts as Abby, the award-winning producers of a news show, that hires Mike.
Abby decides to use Mike as a date guru on the terms, if his advice helps her, they work together side-by-side, and if the advice doesn't work, he quits.
I find myself even more so amazed that Gerard is able to play another versatile role and being unrecognizable. He is such like an amoeba changing his appearance with each movie and being something completely different from his last film.
The chemistry between the two stars is quite incredible to watch. Unlike The Proposal, a similar themed movie, Katherine and Gerard have better chemistry than Bullock and Reynolds, and the comedy is not playing awkwardness. The comedy is sarcasm, witty banter and ultimately the hilarious truth.
It's well cast, well written, well acted and everything goes perfectly together. It's an entertaining movie, but could have done without so much profanity. I'd recommend it to everyone over the age of 14.
