The Ugly Truth

This was pretty bad. That chick from Grey's Anatomy was in it, you know, the one that is dying and just got married, had visions etc. I am so annoyed by that show and her character, that her name escapes me. Also, that guy who was in PS I love You, but also in Rocknrolla, so he's an action and comedic actor, Gerard Butler.

There have been movies like this before, He Said, She Said comes to mind with Kevin Bacon and Liz Perkins. But in comparison, this was a poorer version. What was bad about it? Pretty much too little character development. You are just supposed to accept these two, one a high powered knock-out female that cannot get a date (yeah right), the other a rough-hewn chauvinistic guy that tells it like it is when it comes to relationship, but he's all broken inside like a little girl. Give me a fucking break. She's a pretty attractive woman, and she can't get a date, except via on-line? Unbelievable. He lives with his sister and her kid and treats woman like trash, maybe, but unlikely. His sister would've straightened him out prior.

All of this wretchedness is set in a TV studio with the female playing a high powered news show producer, with an annoying assistant who actually says she is living vicariously through the dateless producer, and of course the assistant is pretty hot too, so we are to believe she can't get a date either, give me a fucking break. Butler's character is hired to bring up the ratings with his raw public access dating advice show, which becomes a segment on the news show. So, Gray girl is so powerful and successful that she has to have help with her horrible ratings? These two horrible characters come together and hate each other at first, then they fall in love. She's in his ear while producing the show, he's in her ear when she's on dates with this perfect doctor guy she meets.

One scene was pretty much over the top. Barbarian man gives annoying Gray's anatomy star a pair of vibrating panties that she puts on. Then suddenly out of nowhere she has to go to dinner with Barbarian, and the big wigs at the main station in New York or LA or some crap like that. The remote falls out of vibrating panties purse, and low and behold a kid at the next table picks it up and starts jerking terminally ill grey star's clitoris. How did this make it anywhere off the cutting room floor. I thought it was kind of funny though with her blowing her load to a child's remote hand. How is this not kiddie porn? Because the midget is unaware that he's jerking her off? Pretty tasteless though. I guess everyone wants to do Harry Met Sally, but this is just too far I think. It would've been incredibly tasteless, but more funny if the person that picked it up was a nun or retarded, or say the waitress, and she tries to use it on the TV, but just makes Gray girl cum. But a kid?

Of course this piece of crap ends with Gray girl and rough man kissing on a balloon ride. She said, "I thought you didn't like me, but I love you. that doctor guy with the perfect abs was such a dick, that I couldn't suck his." He said, "I thought you were banging the doctor guy, but you were pining for me all along? oh, lets kiss on this balloon, and finally fuck each other because we are perfect for each other, how fucking romantic." Of course, happily ever after, the end. I go to too many movies.
