Review of A Lot Like Love (2005) by Ginom. — 06 Apr 2007
These post-1998 witty romantic comedies seem to follow a familiar ploy in hopes to stand out in a sea of sameness. That ploy is a simple attempt identifying with young people that think this sort of deliberately obtuse wit exists in real life and is plausible to apply their own lives.
The reality is that such phantasmagorical wit-ridden romance doesn't define a damn thing about young people in society however much those who identify with this prototypical movie would like to think so.
I call this The Garden State Complex, and in addition to sounding like a nice Emo band, this complex seems to be quite widspread.
