As far as romantic comedies go, this was actually fairly good - both Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway were well cast and managed to work well together. The movie did made me feel old - as it seems to early for a movie set in the 90s to feel nostalgic, but hey, what can I do? Overall, not too bad and better than I was expecting. |

Jake Gyllenhaal was amazing here, Anne Hathaway was good as well. Had some really interesting but sometimes exaggerated screenplay. Soundtrack was decent and direction sometimes leaning towards the romance than the nature of the job. Overall, Love and Other Drugs was a decent picture about love, sacrifices, and a bit of drugs. |

A great date movie. Well acted by Gyllenhaal and Hathaway. The characters are developed well and I like the time period. I am not attracted Hathaway but I was still entertained. Pick it our a date night and enjoy. |

Is this a movie about Viagra? The pharmaceutical industry? Healthcare? Parkinson's? Love? Answer: All of the above. Wait, isn't that a lot of subjects to take on for one movie? Answer: yes. It's also strange to see a movie set in the 90s and view it as "retro." I am so old. The 90s were awhile ago. Crap.
This movie was really bad. Boring. Shallow. Confused. Unfocused. Badly written. Over-the-top. Schmaltz schmaltz schmaltz. Pity party. Really didn't like it. |

From the previews I had no idea that Anne Hathaway's charachter was ill. It was fun to watch these two people develop a relationship, beyond sex, even though sex was all they wanted from each other. Just goes to show that eventually, feelings get in the way |

Love and Other Drugs, aka Overact Much? |

I loved the premise of this movie, that love conquers all obstacles. Jake Gyllenhaal plays Jamie, a slacker who thinks he is a gift for all women. After indiscretions at work get him fired, Jamie decides to prove his family wrong for calling out his caveman ways by going to pharmaceutical sales training. Jamie eventually meets Anne Hattaway's Maggie, a young artist weighed down with Parkinson's Disease. Jamie and Maggie fall in love, and Jamie wants to do everything medically possible to "cure" Maggie. Maggie eventually feels like love is not Jamie's motivation and pushes him away because she does not want to be a burden to Jamie's career.
This movie had some great scenes, funny moments, and great lines. The only problem with the whole movie is that every single actor in the m... |
