You just never get the feeling that things won't work out or get resolved by the end of it. It's being too predictable all and the 'troubles' the characters run into (Well, mostly they just create them themselves) are all just a tad bit too formulaic and the movie fails to come up with some true creative and surprising stuff. But it also seems that the story wasn't being anything solid to begin with. Every time I thought that I had the characters all figured out by now they would do something totally unexpected, which felt out of character for them and this constantly prevented me from getting into this movie and its characters. Not that the movie is anything that raunchy, though it still tries hard to be. They weren't really being interesting or likable enough to care for, also because they are doing some despicable things at times. They are mostly being extreme stereotypes of characters we often see in these type of movies. Also because of that you'll have a hard time truly caring for this movie but this also has to do with its characters. Both the comedy and drama of this movie fall a bit flat because of that. It does let this movie feel a bit messy at times and confuses you about whether you should laugh or take things in this movie seriously. It seems to be a bit of a struggle for this movie to find a right balance between all of its comedy and its more serious elements. Chances are you might 'get' some of the things this movie is trying to do and say and also get some more enjoyment out of it. Guess it's true this is being more of a chick-flick anyway, so my opinion of it shouldn't matter too much if you're a girl or woman. No true good laughs, no good engaging drama and not really any characters to truly care for. On the one hand it is being far from a bad one but on the other I just got absolutely nothing out of it. Still not really sure how to feel about this movie.
