He's Just Not That Into You

Just watched another amazing Jen An movie. This woman is incredible! So many movies in so little time. This one is called 'He's Just Not That Into You' (hence the title, silly!), and is about the love and life of a group of people. The interesting thing about this movie is that it does not just focus on one or two leads, and make the rest extras. It's an ensemble cast, meaning everyone is equally important to the development of the story. Kind of like Friends. Definitely not like Romeo and Juliet.

The movie also focuses on different aspects of a relationship. Jen An and Ben Affleck is in one of those where Guy is super caring and good towards Girl, but Guy does not believe in marriage while Girl does. Girl wants to get married, and hence leaves Guy. In the end, they get back together, of course. Who could do such a terrible thing to Jennifer Aniston?

Jennifer Connelly and Bradley Cooper is a married couple who's lives are shattered when Bradley has an affiar with yoga instructor (and aspiring singer) Scarlett Johansson. I realize she's always playing the role of the slut. In 'Match Point', she's the one who left the husband for an affair with another guy. Anyhow, the marriage gets ruined after he admits he had an affiar and the three of them ended up with nobody. And kids, that's why you should never admit to having an affair.

The other kind of relationship explored is the cyber kind. Drew Barrymore very accurately pointed out how difficult dating can be in the modern world, what with all the funky and cool but utterly unessential new gadgets.

"I had this guy leave me a voicemail at work, so I called him at home, and then he emailed me to my BlackBerry, and so I texted to his cell, and now you just have to go around checking all these different portals just to get rejected by seven different technologies. It's exhausting."

Here's a hilarious video of the male stars of the movie explaining the 10 Chick Flick cliches you will NOT see in 'He's Just Not That Into You'. Enjoy!
