Movie Review: Was portrayed as being the next When Harry Met Sally
Summary: 5 Stars
Simply because it was a film based on people meeting over a long period of time, and then losing touch again with each other. Much like When Harry Met Sally. Now while When Harry Met Sally is a classic, this has no hope of ever being a classic. BUT it's really good. So good that I was crying by the end, and I never cry at rom-coms. But this was that good.
I have to say this isn't a film for guys, as they're simply not soppy enough to watch it. :( They know they should, but they won't. Hey Amanda Peet gets butt nekkid (although she's shockingly skinny, give the girl a burger), you'd think the guys would be flocking to see it. But I guess the girls will just have to go out and buy this, and watch to their heart's content. I've already watched it twice.
Ashton Kutcher is becoming the next Ben Affleck in some people's opinions, as he consistently chooses bad films to star in. OK, I like both actors without a doubt, but you can see why some people would hate this film, and others that he has done. And Amanda just has no on-screen prescene about her. She doesn't shine, she should be someone like Judy Greer, who can't shine in a lead role, but instead has to be a supporting actress.
But for some reason, with these two actors, it works. They work. Despite the god-awful bad haircuts at the beginning, and the moments when the film does drag (note, I said moments!), the film is fabulous. There's many moments in it, which will just make you melt inside, including the fantastic kiss on New Year's Eve (who wouldn't?), the naked photo on top of the car (wow) and the tear jerking moment at the end, where it's discovered that Ashton's character, Oliver, really DID make the first move on Emily.
The scene where Emily and Oliver are standing naked behind the car and Oliver says to her that she just "looked" (at his genital area) hadn't primarily been shot for the movie. It was actually a real moment between Amanda and Ashton, which the director decided to use for the film afterwards.
I loved the whole fact that on the end credits, they were actually put alongside many, MANY pictures of Ashton & Amanda in one of those photo booths. Bearing in mind, those only spit out four pictures at a time, and I dunno about in the US, but they're bloody expensive over here! Some of the pics are your standard lets-stick-our-tongues-out-at-the-camera, but some are really cool, and there was chemistry between Ashton & Amanda. I normally think there's lack of chemistry between characters in films, but sometimes, you just get that spark, and you get it here.
It doesn't let you get as close to the characters as you would like, why Emily is so against men in general, why she gives each men three strikes, and why Oliver wants to go into the diaper business.
This film will work if you've ever had a male or female 'friend' who you were really in love with. The feelings are there, but the timing isn't right, or the other just isn't 'in' that place.
This would be a terrific date movie, perfect for a snuggly day indoors, when the rain's pouring outside, and it's cold. You might have to handcuff your boyfriend to get him to sit down & watch it, and you might have to put up with his sarcastic comments throughout, but hopefully, it should make you go all gooey inside. And you might have to promise, to watch some hard man, action, guns blazing film. (Just to be stereotypical.) Or you might watch something completely unexpected, and really like it. You could use that on your boyfriend girls. He just might like it. Or you could promise him something else. ;)
Summary of A Lot Like Love (Widescreen Edition)
Two opposites have a one-flight stand from la to new york. When the trips over they are too - & both move on but really cant let go. As they search for love they keep finding each other. And while the chemistry that first brought them together keeps generating heat the timing is always wrong.
