A Lot Like Love (2005)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Sorry, this movie sucks

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

She's a punk chick. He's a dumbo. Maybe in reverse, i don't know. They see each other at airport and trying to establish some sort of aural connection. Electricity is in the air and cost nothing. Then they got high in the sky and have intercourse with each other. That's the first five minutes of the movie and you can feel real romance. But it's not.What's the point when they act like stupid people? Is love stupid? Is life a embarrassment for the living? My eyes saw it and were in disbelief.First point is the first five minutes. Second is the next six and a half years these weirdos chasing each other while got successful businesses (selling diapers), failed relationships (in both ways their companions just saying "i'm leaving" without much consequences) and photo gallerys (chick doesn't know how to selfie). While chasing they pose naked, simulating choking and drive relentlessly while stuffing their nose with glasses (don't ask why). Peter Cetera's voice in the set.So is this "romance" is worth anybody's time? As main character's deaf brother said - "Life doesn't wait for you to get back on your feet." Don't fall in this movie's trap.

This film tells the story of a man and a woman, who has a connection but have not got a chance to be probably together. They spend seven years drifting, and finally they make a decision about their lives.The story is built rather slowly, and it really should not have taken almost two hours to get to the inevitable, predictable ending. The two leads walk through their lives, and the story does not get interesting or engaging. It does not feel sweet or romantic, which is pretty hard to achieve for a romantic comedy. I have been wanting to watch this film for years, but unfortunately I am hugely disappointed by it.

This is a really enjoyable romantic comedy. I enjoy it every time. The twists and turns of the story are entertaining. Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet are excellent and believable in the roles they play. The real star of this film is the soundtrack. Whoever put together this group of songs did an outstanding job. If you are into music the soundtrack is truly a first class collection of great songs that are timeless to me. I have listened to the soundtrack over and over and I never tire of it.I highly recommend this movie to anyone who wants to spend a great 2 hours with good friends and great tunes.

Emily Friehl (Amanda Peet) has sex with Oliver Martin (Ashton Kutcher) on a flight but refuses to fall for his awkward flirtations. He vows to be rich and successful in 6 years and they bet $50 on it. Three years later, her boyfriend breaks up with her right before New Year. She decides to call up Oliver. They have a charming time but he's moving to San Francisco. Two years later, he gets dumped and she runs into an old friend who is now dating her old boyfriend. They spend some more great time together but she has just met somebody else before and his internet diaper idea is on the verge of a breakthrough. One year later, his work is in the dumps and she's a celebrated photographer but she's engaged.Sure, this is a copy of other great rom-coms. That has never irked me especially for the rom-com genre which relies a lot on formulas. The fact that it follows some familiar paths is a plus. Amanda Peet is adorable and is able to bring out some of the charm of Kutcher. That's the real deciding factor. They're a fun couple with a touching on-and-off romance. I would probably rework the years idea. I would start with "Six years ago", then "Three years ago", then "One year ago", then "Today". It would make the years countdown like a clock in a thriller and the saddest moment is when the clock gets to zero.
