I know this have been out for a while, but I watched it again last night and thought, eh i'm behind in my blogging i'll just drop a few lines about it.
I think overall for a chick flick, I like this movie. It does amuse me. I really like Justin Long in most movies and I loved Ben Afflecks character in this as well. I did find several of the characters to drive me absolutely nuts. Like the married couple. The wife Janie was freaking insane. She can just get over her husband cheating and make excuses for him, but the minutes she finds out he has been lying about smoking she's done. Seriously lady you might have to rethink your priorities. Her husband Ben has serious jerk issues and his girlfriend Anna was distracting by her bitchy ways and her wardrobe made her often look disproportionate.
My other problem was with painfully awkward scenes . The narrator and main girl of the story is Gigi. I like Gigi. I don't like several scenes that are just too painful to watch. For example when she is stalking some guy to the supper club, she talking to much to a stranger that ends up being the guy's friend. Or she decides some guy is in love with her even though everyone can see that he's just not that into her, its painful to watch. I have to admit I also had this same problem with Meet the Parents which i have only been able to get through once because there were too many awkward, no one is that stupid scenes.
All that said, it is a fun movie to watch, just don't expect to get alot out of it. But the phrase 'he's just not that into you' is always a good one so say it and use it often
