This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.

This plotless jumbled mess of a 'movie' relies solely on its agglomeration of star power, an unconditionally dire mistake in film-making. Its blinded far-reaching stabs at humor left me completely unscathed. This film's sentiment towards dating is contrived and far-flung from any aspect of truth; a 15 year old without the slightest comprehension of love could tear through these falsehoods. 'He's Just Not That Into You' is an abomination. Within thirty minutes, my detestation of it left me clawing for the stop button, condemning it forever.

I'm afraid there aren't enough words to describe all the things that are wrong with this movie, but here is a list of some of them:
1. The story is more sexist than a vacuum cleaner-commercial from the fifties.
2. The characters have less personality than lego bricks.
3. The dialogue is more annoying than the sound of a billion alarm clocks ringing.
4. The characters are more stereotypical than Barbie and Ken.
5. The whole movie is about as fun as tonsillitis.
6. The guy from Entourage is in it. -
When I watched this, I swore I would never put myself through the torture again.
Twice. Twice I've seen it now. -
Damnit, this is another film that I will reluctantly have to add to my guilty pleasure list.
Starring a pretty decent cast ensemble, including Scarlett Johansson, Bradley Cooper, Justin Long, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Connelly, and Drew Barrymore, He’s Just Not That Into You is another one of those overly cliché rom-coms with so many characters and story lines that, despite how rubbish it may be, you'll more than likely find something to relate to.
Although the characters aren't particularly likeable, they are all so entirely over-exaggerated that there will be some small part of their obsessive personalities that you will undoubtedly see in yourself. That's this films one main quality - looking at a number of different relationships…

An awesome movie just to see things as they are...

"Relationships are complicated", reads the tagline of this generic, subpar interpretation of modern love. Probably.
What the film thinks it's doing and what it actually does are two different things. It aims to offer a new take on contemporary romance and all the complications in between. It actually gives us, however, a reworking of conventional gender stereotypes, with women as marriage-obsessed loons and men as pure commitmentphobes, infidels completely uncertain of everything around them. A few chuckles here and there, but the striving towards a more sophisticated, interweaving narrative structure does not conceal the emptiness and narrowness of 'HJNTIY's' attitude to the vast unknown that is the male/female interaction. -
A few years back, a failed comedian decided to write a lame book masquerading as a breakthrough relationship manual, stating the most obvious facts and cliches, making every woman out to be in oblivious denial, and every man out to be a jerk. For some baffling reason, Oprah gave it her golden seal of approval and all of her zombie followers gobbled it up. Then, Drew Barrymore decided it needed to be a movie, and set out to produce it. Ugh.
Now, let me say right off the bat I have no problem with romantic comedies. There are plenty that I like. Relationships between men and women are perfect fodder for comedy. But while mosty enjoyable, this film is kinda…

Learned: I wasn't that into it. It's ok to cheat, lie, feel disappointed, as long as love totally ruins your life at some point.

A realistic romantic comedy, extremely realistic!
Based on the Greg Berendt's book . -
I hadn't seen a cheesy chick flick in a while, so thought I'd check this one out and, while I understand why it doesn't get more than two stars from most reviewers, I think that for a movie of its kind, it's pretty good. It deals with love issues - all sorts of them - and adds a bit of funny and a bit of sad here and there. Yes, I would agree that it makes the mistake of most chick flicks by stereotyping men, women, relationships for the millionth time in human history. But I suppose when I watch chick flicks, I do my best to overlook that and as long as they're entertaining, I enjoy them.
So, there. I kinda liked it, if you consider that it's a pretty shallow, cheesy - hate to repeat the name - chick flick.

Oh My Gosh. Someone please please slap me in the face next time I try to procrastinate watching Chick Flicks. If I had watched this from way before, I could've saved myself a lot of heart aches. This movie taught me so many things in one night that I ever tried learning on my own for four years and I really want to read the book.
You see, girls overthink most--if not all--of the time. Every little gesture from a guy ultimately becomes a 'sign' because you know, we dig that shit. We believe in destiny and fairy tales. Well, let me tell you something. Most fairy tales are either gory or doesn't make sense. But that's getting off topic.…
