Review of Love & Other Drugs (2010) by Tvjerry — 27 Nov 2010
This is NOT a romantic comedy, because there's not much funny. It starts that way, but moves into Hallmark territory with the addition of a chronic disease (conveniently left out of the ads). Jake Gyllenhaal plays a player, who charms the ladies, as he hawks his pharmaceuticals.
His game is trumped when he meets charming Anne Hathaway. The plot follows predictable paths with the exception of the aforementioned complication. The chemistry between the two attractive leads bolsters the average writing, but the supporting characters add little life.
An average chick flick.
