The Woman
there is nothing creative or new, or even funny involving this movie. i don't know why i put myself through these dime a dozen romantic comedies. it must be something in the female dna. this could have seriously, with a few minor details changed, been "the proposal", or....i can't think of another one because they're all blending together in my brain. there were maybe one or two occurances where the corner of my lips upturned 3 degrees from their original state, but it's now fifteen minutes after the end of my viewing and i can't recall the instances so what does that tell you. i could tell where it was supposed to be funny, and that just made me more dissatisfied. stupid and shallow, uninteresting and unoriginal. not even wiford brimley could save this one.now, i'm going to go get a chai latte from starbucks.
