    Decent movie but it has been done to death. You've seen this one several times with slightly different scenarios each time. You know the outcome very quickly but you still want to hang in there til the end. Angie is a fox as usual and Charlie, well he's just Charlie,

    This is a chick flick that a guy can watch and not feel bad about. After an admittedly slow start, it gets to be genuinely funny. The "performance artist" is kinda disgusting, but funny. This is a good movie for "date night" with your honey.

    An enjoyable romantic comedy if you can get through the first 20 minutes of this movie, which looks like an episode of Two and a Half men. Yet, the rest of the movie is one that keeps me coming back to watch it over and over. Not a movie for everyone though. You'll either love it or hate it.
