I am amazingly shocked that this movie has a high rotten tomatoes rating. I've never read the book, but I was only interested in the film because my sister Gabrielle Union in it. I didn't think it would be this bad? By now you are saying: "You're being too harsh!"
Well, let me ask this question. Ladies, have you ever met a guy at a club, made out with him for a few minutes and then said you loved them? NO! No woman who respects herself would fall in love with a man instantly just because he's a good kisser. If you do find a woman who is like that, please have her seek help. Because those type of feelings will put her in danger.
Besides that, there is no chemistry between these two. This film makes "Marry Me" seem like the greatest love story ever. Throughout the movie these two are mostly seen in bed, and not partaking in activities that normal people who are interested in each other do. Like going to the movies, eating at a restaurant. Now you could argue that Jenna is afraid of her "boyfriends" mother Darcy. But that's more of the reason why she should have not told the kid that she loved him. In addition, there is a large age gap between the characters, so I don't see why Jenna would be interested in Eric.
At the end of the movie, when Gabrielle's character said: "I'd call it, the Perfect Find." I nearly vomited because of how bad it was. I cannot recommend this movie to anyone, and it hurts me to see my sister Gabrielle Union in a bad movie. But I at least hope the original author is happy with the finished product.
