Well, believe me if i say that when i'm in love with something, namely a movie, I could watch it over and over again.And again, believe me this is going to be my fifth times watching this particular chickflit cum self help sort of movie, particularly because..
1) it has most of my fav stars (jen aniston and scarlett 'wow' johannsen in one movie anyone?and justin long, and bradley cooper and ben affleck and drew barrymore.see, i told ya:)
2) and because it was adapted from a book helmed by my favourite self help guru in the names of Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo, you can expect it to be satirically sarcastic yet funny enough because they wrote things bout these no-nonsense look at relationship, or the pure lack of it.
It is an interconnecting movie revolve around 6 couples, from melting relationship, broken marriage, false hopes, finding hopes, falling in love, u get the gist.It deals with the challenge of reading, or perhaps misreading human signals and behaviour in the game of love, hate and relationships.Each couple in the movie navigates their own issue and the interesting part is, you might have their issue in you, too.
Few things from the movie that every single man and woman need to ponder and put to thought, as i find it as amazingly true are..
a) being married and the marriage itself do not necessarily make u the happiest, and it does not necessarily complete you.
b) if a girl is to be promised a call by a guy she likes, she WILL WAIT for the call.
c) a guy, on the other hand, WILL USE the line 'I'm gonna call ya' as the most discreet way to diss and dump the girl.
d) some woman can accept cheater if the guys confessed that he cheats before he gets caught, but most woman could not accept liars (especially kaki temberang!)
e) the most unavoidable sin that a married man would commit is to fall in love with another woman, yet promise the devoted wife that he wants to save the marriage (gila complicated, duh!)
f) being perfect comes in the form of your true happiness, even if you have to have it all by yourself, on your own, and without help from others.
Oh, and the best scenes in the movie (i have way too many, so it scenes nonetheless:)
1) When neil (ben afflect) proposed beth (jen aniston), on his bended knee, eventho he initially didn't wanna get hitched, but because marriage makes his other half happy, so he will do everything just to be in the same degree of happiness beth wants.
(okay the point here, he proposed the most romantic way.im being cheesy and darn i love it.ahha)
2)When gigi (ginnifer goodwin) humiliates herself more than one just to make sure that the guy she went out with would return her call (err..checking the phone every 2 seconds, or worse, being offensively mad when her mother called because if the guy calls back, he cant get thru because her mom is on the line.gila saiko.hahah)
3) When ben (bradley cooper) confessed that he slept with another chick (that one hot scarlett), to his wife, in the furniture store, knowing that his wife can't yell or make scene at the public place (classssyyyyyyy!!!)
4)When anna (again, that scarlett), being veryyyy flirtatious, swapping kisses and hugs and cuddles with connor (kevin connolly), but to admit right to connor's face that she aint freaking ready for anything (aren't we always indecisive because he is not what we want?)
Now, let's lobby for 'It's Breakup Because It's Broken' to a movie too...shall we?:)
