Watched this yesterday and thought it was good although not amazing. At its heart its a Chick Flick mascaradeing as a Rom-Com and not normally my thing but its got Kevin Smith in it so it HAD to be watched.
The good news is that Smith delivers exactly as you would expect, its not hard, his character is basically a mix of Bob and Kevin, so he's been typecast as himself :D He has the best lines of the movie and is a role model for tubby sensitive guys everywhere.
If your not a fan of Smith then there's the Jennifer Garner to look at, her off Alias and the truely attrocious Elektra, she acts well and naturally and proves she can actually act rather distract with high kicks and gun play.
If I had had my way the movie would have ended very differently and I found myself swareing quietly at the main characters at times its a shame Hollywood can't get over the idea that beautiful people only fall in love with other beautiful people even if they are twats but all in all its not a bad watch, as long as don't get too fixated on Timothy Oliphant's strangely too white glowing teeth.
