He's Just Not That Into You (2009) (Blu Ray) - 7/10

Another movie that you feel like you've seen it 10 times before, He's Just Not That Into You tries so hard to be outside the Rom Com scene where normal people talk to the camera about the rules of dating but this movie just falls flat because of the cliched structure and ending that tries to leave the viewer on a happy note. I liked the chemistry of the cast sometimes in this movie, particularly Ben Affleck and Justin Long, but the female characters in this movie were so annoying and batsht crazy that I actually hoped all the guys would get out of it all together and just hang out. Cheating on your wife, calling back, and how to market yourself are all ideas brought up yet I guess I haven't grown up enough yet to be worred about marriage and getting too old for kids. Either way, there are some amusing moments but the use of facebook and myspace date this movie so that it will probably seem old in just a few years. Overall, a harmless movie that tries to think outside the box but falls into the same traps as 99% of others. If you wanna see a good movie, go see 500 Days of Summer.
