Predictable and Not funny, But I like it

Rating: 6/10 (31 August 2016)

I have watched this several times and it is a ROM COM that follows a predictable formula. Furthermore, it never made me laugh at all. Part of the reason it never made me laugh is that is it so incredibly predictable. That said, the story took some deeper views of the relationships between men and women than most ROM COMs. The main relationship is between TV Producer Abby, and TV up and coming talk show or segment host Mike. In Abby we see a controlling women that scares men away, and furthermore, she has a hopeful view of finding a perfect guy someday. In Mike, we have someone running from any entanglements and seeking conquests. He has a negative view of women but still wants sex with them. He presents and ugly view of relationships, but has a sense of how to fix them to get to win win. As a side project, he helps Abby become the woman that men desire. But at the same time, she becomes someone she is not comfortable being. We also find out along the way, that Mike's negative view of women was forged by numerous negative experiences he has had in relationships with women.
The final step to bring the movie to its very predictable end, is that Abby must lose her dreams and Mike lose his pre-conceived notions and take a risk based on the feelings they have developed for each other.
