A chick flick your boyfriend will actually like!

Rating: 7/10 (23 July 2009)

So a girl is looking for love, a guy is looking for raunchy sex. Not only is this the basis of the movie, but maybe also the real ugly truth. It's a very simple concept but how do you make a movie out of this? Some people would say that the movie industry is losing it's originality when writing but if you ask me this worked very well. Not only did a laugh constantly, there were parts where I doubled over laughing. In fact I would see this 20 more times in theaters before I even rented Bruno to see it again, and yes I think this could be a movie where you watch it more then once.
Gerard Butler hasn't really proved to me what he can do with his acting skill till now, and I pray that he does more comedic roles. He was the highlight of this entire movie and for that reason, he will be offered more in comedy. Just try not to think of King Leonidas from 300 when you're watching it. Katherine Heigl was also good, maybe better then she was in Knocked Up, but still kind of same old Katherine.
Now before the movie started I told myself that I would seriously mark this movie down a few points if the ending was as totally predictable as I thought it was going to be, but after how surprised I was, I decided to go a little easier.
Conclusion: Girls, see it with a guy. Guys, pay for the tickets and you may get lucky after.
