Review of Think Like a Man (2012) by Dylan D — 08 Sep 2013
Think Like a Man isn't destined to be a cherished Romantic Comedy, but it earns points for a spirited and unique plot, good characters, fine acting, and a smooth rhythm. The picture's a touch overlong and sometimes unnecessarily complex and in-depth, but generally it's a pleasure, even as there's not much surprise when it comes to how the relationships will develop, falter, and reestablish.
It's a bit unusual to find a movie based on a self-help book, but here it is with a few in the can and more on the way. Think Like a Man may directly reference Steve Harvey's book, but it doesn't feel like a two-hour informercial.
Audiences less familiar with the book might actually get more entertainment value from the movie. Overall, Think Like a Man entertains, but it's probably not destined to be a cornerstone of relationships the world over.
