He's Just Not That Into You (2009)
Well, I've got to say that I learned an important lesson from this movie. If a woman in her 20s or 30s is single, she really should just crawl under a rock and die, because clearly no one will ever be "into" her. In conjunction with that, all women of said age are desperate, pathetic, and completely clueless when a man is uninterested. Please. It's sad too, because the cast of this movie had tons of potential. But besides Justin Long and Bradley Cooper being adorable as usual, Ginnifer Goodwin's character is dumb and clingy and Scarlet Johansson is again the other woman trying to break up a marriage (and honestly, it's done better in Match Point). This book is supposed to be a wake-up call for women who are chasing after unavailable men, but then the movie ends up being almost an urban fairy tale where everyone lives happily ever after with exactly who you thought they would end up with. Please don't take this movie seriously.
My Netflix rating: 3 stars
