He's Just Not That Into You...

So, I know I've fallen off the blogging planet, but now I'm back with a vengeance.  Now, for your reading pleasure, is Like Ok and Stuff's first movie review!


When I saw the first previews for He's Just Not That Into You I thought that there was no chance in hell that I would see it.  I absolutely hated all the hype around the book, so I figured the movie would be equally annoying.  I was SO wrong.  The movie was so freaking cute, I can't even stand it.

5 reasons why I LOVED this movie:
1.  Ginnifer Goodwin.  She is the new Reese Witherspoon in my opinion.  She is a brilliant comic actress and so good at portraying a character that everyone can relate to.  Plus, her hair is super cute in the movie.  : )
2.  Justin Long.  Ok, I know he's the Mac computer commercial guy, but I truly fell in love with him in this movie.  His dialogue with Ginnifer Goodwin was the best part of the movie.  
3.  Jennifer Aniston and Ben Affleck did not bug me at all.  They normally make me want to throw something at the screen, but they actually had chemistry.  
4.  The vignette nature of the film.  I really liked the ensemble cast.  It was a refreshing to have multiple stories going on at one time and they all connected in some way.  I haven't seen that approach since Love Actually (my favorite movie).
5.  It made me smile.  I laughed and felt happy so many times during the movie.  It was very relatable, and I think that's why it was so funny.  

The 1 thing that should have been cut out:
Scarlett Johansen!  

If you decide to see it, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.  : )

  1. Glad you liked it!! I think it is such an interesting concept for a movie... based on a self help book, that was written from Sex and the City, right? I can't wait to see it. Too bad we have to wait for it to come on DVD. *sigh* I haven't been to the movies in AGES. I saw Twilight, but before that, my last movie was Enchanted. I miss the movies!!
