How Do You Know (2010)

Now this, on the other hand. I did not like. I have always enjoyed James L Brooks films. Terms of Endearment ripped my heart out. I loved Broadcast News and especially As Good As It Gets. I even enjoyed Spanglish after a second viewing. I absolutely did not like this.  I realize that seems harsh, especially when I pretty much like everything. I thought this was just a weak movie, far longer than it needed to be...with unappealing characters (except for always adorable Paul Rudd) I really disliked Owen Wilson (and I usually don't mind him so much) and again, not so in love with Reese Witherspoon anymore either.  I thought if the movie only focused on Paul Rudd and his character, it might have been a decent movie.  I am really happy I didn't bother seeing this at the movies, I would have been disappointed, and I don't even recommend this really, unless you really, really like one of the actors. There are so many better movies to choose from each of them that would be time better spent.
