Summary: I was entertained
Review: Yeah, this is your typical romantic-comedy. The plot stinks and the end is just as you would imagine. That being said, I sit here trying to describe why I will watch this movie again.

Was it Jennifer Anniston?? No, her role is good, but nothing spectaculer.

Ben Stiller?? Maybe. That guy can make me laugh by just standing on the screen.

I know..It is Stiller's friend. I can't remember his name(it's been a week since I watched), but Ben Stiller's actor friend is hilarious in this movie. He plays a child-actor who has grown up, but stills feels superior to everyone he meets. This guy makes this movie. Some of the stuff he says is just so out-of-line that you can't help but laugh. Now, when I say out-of-line, I mean that in a romantic comedy way. This movie is defintely grosser than most Richard Gere films, which is good for those guys like myself, who will have to sit thru crap like this all the time with their girlfriends.

The story...I'm not even going to get into it, because it's boy meets girl..boy discovers he likes girl...girl is not sure...so on and so on..

Don't be discouraged by the other reviews on Amazon for this movie. If you liked "Meet the Parents" there is a good chance you will enjoy this film.

Summary: ALONG CAME POLLY
Review: Yet another romantic comedy about unlikely people coming together despite themselves, and this one's worse than most. The premise is fine and you'd think that Ben Stiller and Jennifer Anniston would make it work, but not so. The two leads are talented, but somehow there's never any believable spark between them, and neither's character is particularly likeable anyway so it's hard to see what they might see in each other apart from sheer desperation. The script is terrible and relies heavily on bathroom humor and other juvenilia. This is an unfortunately crude, crass, blatantly unbelievable and highly unfunny film.
