It should have been titled, "Down With Love"
22 March 2005
Every time I tell someone that, the reply is always, "Wasn't there already a movie by that title?" Well, that's the whole point of the joke! I will tell you the honest truth, for the first thirty minutes I thought to myself, God, this the most pretentious piece of Hollywood garbage I've ever seen in my life. Yeah, Catherine Zeta-Jones is mighty fine to look at, (most fellas would agree with me on that), and George Clooney's physical beauty is fully visible for all the ladies to drool over, who could ask for anything more? Well, at first I was turned off by the shallow, superficial storyline, but as the evening progressed, so did my interest and attention span. The humor is totally sardonic, and sadomasochistic. Well, I would have given it a thumbs up, had I been Ebert and Roeper.

Well, it's damn beautiful to look at by all accounts, and I would advise anyone to see it for himself, to make one's own decision.
