TrueHello
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The acting in this movie is really good.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The chemistry between the lead couple is spot on. They look and act terrifically, that's something of a novel concept for a romantic comedy recently. The theme is all age-old, tried and tested one - a reckless playboy meets a kind-hearted girl with a non curable disease and then they go away and come back with a happy ending. But, the execution is what this film sets apart and makes it a one time watch on a lazy afternoon. The situational comedy suits well in parts but, the overall tone is more romantic and dramatic. Anne is pretty believable as a Parkinson's patient and handles the situation too well. See it or not, you won't miss much either way.

I started watching this film more because I had to than because I wanted to. I was fully aware that I may not like it. I can usually tolerate even watching terrible stuff like the new Bladerunner, when there is a good reason.But this time, around 60 min mark, I had to stop. This film was hurting my brain, and burning holes in it. Why, you ask? Oh boy, where do I start. Let's see:
A brother who jokes about oral sex (they used much more crude language in the scene however) with his brother during dinner with their mother present. That was supposed to be funny.An alienated looser of a drug salesman who has not a trace of humanity in him, falls in love with a girl who has no personality, other than her Parkinson. And I am supposed to care?Dialogues which confuse swearing with meaning. Crude and dumb to no end.Any time those things (bad dialogues, untenable relationship) fall apart, we get a sex scene, which is even worse. Sex is uninspired, loveless, crude, unfunny, uncaring, and all too logical/brainy to be interesting. It is what a teenager who never had sex imagines sex scenes should be like. Oh, and she does not want him back, and he falls for her even more, just like that. Bring that gawd-awful brother back!Jake G. and Anne H. were quite good, but good acting does not a good film make, especially not when the script is awful. They should have rejected those roles. I bet this film did not look any better on paper either.You get the idea. The film or script was made by people who have no interest or ability to understand human condition. They have the finesse of a nuclear weapon, and artistic flair of "paint by numbers" book. The result is this horror.Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go and watch Miley Cirus to detox from this crap.

Came to my attention because I saw Movie Night's list of the Top Ten best nude scenes ever, and was really surprised to find Walt Disney star Anne Hathaway on there. Obtained the movie, but the box art generally strikes you as a romantic comedy, so I was quite surprised by that scene where Anne disrobed to be surprised by Josh Gad.There are movies out there who purport to be sexual, but they aren't ever as classy sexy as this one. Yes, there is a considerable mix-up of genres in this film, with something for everybody thrown in. One moment it is a romantic comedy, then it is clear that tragedy is inevitably around the corner, but interspersed are some of the sexiest scenes done on film, and then we're back with much, much bleaker stuff again.Morgan Freeman referred to Anne Hathaway as "the naked girl from LOVE & OTHER DRUGS"... Who'd have thought that after THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA...?Nice to see Katheryn Winnick in here as well, as 'bad girl' 'Lisa' after recently seeing her in that NIKITA episode.
