I may have been the last person in the world to see this movie. I don't think I enjoyed it as much as everyone else did, simply because I've heard so much about it there wasn't any way it could measure up to what I was expecting. I was surprised. I will say, though, that the first half is much better than the second half. In the first half it's pretty original and fresh, but the second half degenerates into your typical romantic comedy that embraces stereotypes you've seen a million times before: guys are selfish and dumb, women are shrill and controlling. And of course, the couple breaks up only to reunite when the water breaks and everyone lives happily ever after. Sorry if I just spoiled it for all of you, but you can see this ending coming a mile away.
