Unbelievable and raunchy and sassy romantic comedy.

Rating: 5/10 (24 July 2009)

"The Ugly Truth" isn't anything great still it's a comedy that entertains in a crude gross and raunchy kind of way. From watching the scenes of the slow eating of a hot dog and listening to the script clearly you notice that it's a crude and sass comedy. It' not like the classic romance where love was obtained the old fashion way by holding hands and using manners.
Katherine Heigl is an uptight and by the book California TV news producer who's programs are starting to fall in ratings. Enter a new sight when one day she sees a public access program that's outspoken as the host(Gerard Butler)tells it like it is about love, life and relationships. So the TV station up and hires this loud and outspoken mouth and what do you know ratings increase! In what was a traditional and uptight controlled news cast is now a sex advice hit! The Butler character starts to give the Heigl character advice on relationships it works at first yet not with some growing pains.
Yet thru it all in the end it's a growing experience as each polar opposite will find their true selves and discover unexpected love. Overall this film is nothing great maybe a watch for it's sass and make believe as how many TV stations would really let the Butler character be that foul. And the chemistry between the two leads is nothing great. Really a hit and miss romantic comedy.
