Occasionally, there comes a film that has such a star-studded cast, you just know it's going to be good. "He's Just Not That Into You" was one such film. When the adverts for this came on the telly a few months ago, big names such as Jennifer Aniston, Drew Barrymore, Ben Affleck and Scarlett Johansson immediately caught my attention and I knew it was going to be one I wanted to watch.

Last night, myself and my other half settled down to watch it, and I hoped for a nice ...  Read the complete review

This is another of my film only reviews as I watched this film on the plane coming back from Honeymoon so I have not got the DVD or have watched any extras. I watched this film as I love a good easy going film to watch every now and again. This was not one of those films as nothing much happened and I cannot say I enjoyed it all that much.

I watched this film in the cinema when it first came out and I really enjoyed it. I was having problems with a guy at the time and really related to the film. I have now bought it on DVD and found that it wasn't as good as I remembered. The story follows the lives of several different men and women going through different relationship problems. There is a couple, played by Jennifer Aniston and Ben Affleck, who have been together for seven years. Beth (Aniston) wants to get married and gives him an ultimatum - he marries her or they break up. Another couple - Ben and Janine played by Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Connelly have been together since high ...  Read the complete review
