Review of He's Just Not That Into You

He’s Just Not That Into You is a 2009 film based in Baltimore in the United States. Featuring an all star cast including Scarlett Johansson, Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Connelly, Bradley Cooper, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Aniston, this film follows the lives of a group of people who navigate through their various relationships and learn the true meaning of love. One would have to concentrate while watching this film, as there are many characters involved, all of which have important roles to play in the film. Gigi (Ginnifer Goodwin) is the girl who waits for the guy to call, yet Alex (Justin Long) wants her to stop waiting by the phone. Beth (Aniston) wants to marry her long term boyfriend Neil (Affleck), but he doesn’t share the same sentiments. Ben (Cooper) is married to Janine (Connelly), but he finds himself attracted to Anna (Johansson). Confused already?!

The film is based on the hugely popular bestseller from the writers of none other than Sex and the City, Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo. As rottentomatoes.com say, He’s Just Not That Into You tells the stories of a group of interconnected, Baltimore-based twenty and thirty-somethings as they navigate their various relationships from the shallow end of the dating pool through the deep, murky waters of married life, trying to read the signs from the opposite sex...and hoping to be the exceptions to the “no-exceptions” rule.

I found the film really enjoyable as it was a romantic comedy, but one in which a lot of people could relate to, especially if you are that girl who waits by the phone for days for the male in question to call! It’s a film that will make you both laugh and cry, and is one that I would recommend for a chilled out evening.
