vitachiel You've got a serious issue of bad taste if you like this movie. Too many happy coincidences, too many bad jokes and too much bad acting to make you even once forget once that you are watching a piece of fiction. It is the standard recipe: put in a desperate, self-denying middle-aged wallflower and her nosy but loving sisters, mix it up with the perfect single guy and his not so good best friend, combine a gay couple, a running gag at the local supermarket and some silly old people, add a series of over the top nightmare dates, season it with lots and lots of cliché jokes and top it off with some garden party home videos while running the end credits. Mix well, sit back and relax. Or buy your own DYI rom-com kit at your budget hardware store.Best line: "I love the internet, you can pay your bills naked."
Dean Woody First, I only watch chick flicks like this because of my lovely lady. I do love dogs, John Cusack (GRIFTERS), and, of course, beautiful Diane Lane. Must Love Dogs is typical pleasant but not overwhelming romance with simple story and dialogue.Christopher Plummer plays a foolish widower with lots of ladies and little respectfulness. He seems under-performing in this role. However, in one late scene with Diane Lane, he steals the show with a turn in depth of character and truth. This short scene is worth the $$ of a rental. It's not Shakespeare, but when your heart skips, you will understand how a professional stage and movie actor can move you. Bravo! How often do we witness these snippets of great scenes and acting from trivial films that are memorable enough to cause you to smile in your memories years later? When you find them, it reinforces what movies are supposed to be. Hats off to a superb Canadian actor who reminds us of these special performances in an otherwise average film.Now, when I am with my special lady, and she wants to cozy up with a chick flick, I will not complain about THIS movie with THAT scene.
SnoopyStyle Sarah Nolan (Diane Lane) is recently divorced and is throwing in the towel. Her family just can't help getting involved in her personal life, or lack there of. After her sister puts her profile on PerfectMatch.com, this preschool teacher goes on a number of outrageous and hilarious dates. Bob (Dermot Mulroney) is the father of one of her students. Jake (John Cusack) is looking for true love.This is very much a by-the-numbers rom-com. There is nothing terrible about this movie. I like all the actors, and they are all lovely. Diane Lane is a dressed-down cutie. Both guys are likable. I do wish she picked one guy quicker.
someofusarebrave I really, really hate this movie. I'm gonna have to disagree with the previous poster--I found this movie totally offensive. From the women obsessed with their father's love life to the schlubby, unattractive man scoring a relationship with a woman way too good for him to the constant references to Diane Lane's questionable and certainly significantly less than extraordinary beauty, this movie bit.Not in a good way.Romantic comedies excel when they manage to be incisive and revealing of various societal truths and intimate and this one was simply not.No one behaves like this in real life, and for good reason. Shame on you, lawyer-dude whose name I cannot be bothered to look up on IMDb right now. You are far better than this film.
