This was a cute movie that warms your heart. It was fun but it's not something I would want to buy or something I could watch over and over again.

The Whiny Diaries

A lifeless and uncharismatic dramedy with a very phony sentimental relationship at its core (between Johansson and the child, whom we never really get to know or like); Giamatti and especially Linney overplay the upscale, neglectful parents and turn in rather hateful performances. Scarlett would be deserved of some sympathy if it didn't take her the entire length of the movie to finally stand up for herself. There's also the expected meet cute romantic angle for the heroine, and when all is done, we realize we never cared for any of these people. Blah! Final Grade: C-

Light and Enjoyable

A friend of mine read the book and was disappointed after watching this film. I didn't read the book but I enjoyed it a lot. I guess it's because I finally found a movie where I liked Scartlett Johansson and Chris Evans from beginning to end. Usually, I hate watching them on film because Johansson can get really annoying ("Match Point") and Evans tends to play the same character over and over ("Fantastic Four," "Fierce People,"Sunshine," shall I go on?). But this time, both are really charismatic and I cared about what would happen to them. I bought all the attachments that started and evolved... and some that had to be broken. Laura Linney is always a joy to watch, but I was kind of disappointed with Paul Giamatti. Out of all the characters, he seemed the most one-dimensional. Still, it'...

Good Date Movie

I had a tough time deciding if I was going to give this movie 2 1/2 stars or 3 stars. It was a very good movie but was it 3 star worthy? As of right know I am going to have to go with yes. That may change in the future but it was a good movie and I am still stuck in the feel good mood of seeing it. as for the movie it is a very sweet movie with lots of laughs. It is not a guy movie but it is a good date movie. I like Scarlett Johansson, yes even for her acting ability, and was surprised to see Paul Giamatti as the slime ball husband. I mean can you ever go wrong with Paul Giamatti? So in conclusion if you are girl or a guy with a girl this movie is defiantly worth renting and not waiting till it is on cable to watch.
