If you are a self-loathing single woman, its your cup of tea

Rating: 1/10 (5 August 2009)

I do not understand how women will allow Hollywood to portray themselves as such mindless, bitchy twits, in rehashed, degrading tripe such as this. No self-respecting lady should stand idly by as this movie frames woman-kind as this by the numbers, way too rehashed Kate Heigl mindless hag. Have some self respect. At least Gerared Butlers' character was too vanilla to even be a stereotype. There was not an original thought in the whole of this movie. I saw the restaurant scene coming from a mile away, as I recognized it from When Harry met Sally (a movie where Meg Ryan's character was at least allowed to think!). The only differences were: 1. Meg Ryan's Character used her IMAGINATION (evidently, the writers in TUG have never even heard of the word)instead of power tools, 2. Meg Ryan's character was in control of the situation, and didn't submit to being pleasured by a little boy. On a related note, when Katherine Heigl received the "Present" of "vibrating underwear" from Gerard Butler's "character" (or lack thereof) did anyone one else notice that the box it came in was worn and "used-looking"? EWWW! What king of nasty skank would accept or even worse, a use second-hand masturbation device? It says a lot that the "actress" would allow her character to be portrayed that way. Well, at least there was no acting wasted on this tripe... honestly, the show played out like someone reading a worn -out script aloud for the first time. Even worse, the make-up "artist" managed to make Katherine Heigl look EVEN Older than she really is... which is especially a pity, because her character might have worked a little bit if she was supposed to be 14 or younger, but a mature woman in her 60s would hopefully have more intelligence, poise dignity and respect for herself.
What a pity of a movie.
