A Lot Like Love
Grade: B-
Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet star in this quirky romantic comedy that’s been compared to “When Harry Met Sally.” After the requisite cute meet, these two characters go their separate ways. Life goes on and a few years later they re-connect, and the chemistry is still there, but the timing is off. The characters learn and grow and eventually figure out that they were destined for each other. Peet is a charming actress, and Kutcher has that lost puppy thing going on, they’re a good on-screen combination. It bothered me that Peet’s character smokes throughout – I thought movies had gotten past that trying to make characters “edgy” ploy. Some nice moments, but could have been better. |
