Review
In the world of
He's Just Not That Into You, people seem to spend twenty-four hours
a day concerned about relationships and dating (and occasionally
interior design). They're remarkably good at finding attractive
prospects, but incredibly bad at knowing how to handle them. The writers
Abby Kohn and Marc Silverstein (1999's Never Been Kissed) are
obviously fascinated by having beautiful 30-somethings run around like
awkward 18-year-olds, looking for love and supposedly educating us. The
idea isn't particularly bright or groundbreaking, but by throwing in a
heap of stars and keep insisting that it's all very cute and funny,
director Ken Kwapis does manage to create a useful semi-romantic comedy
for young couples and desperate single girls. The performances are
solid, especially from those in the ensemble who refrain from being too
manic. Ben Affleck demonstrates that learning from your kid brother can
sometimes be a clever move, and Justin Long takes another step towards
superstardom in a well-balanced part.
