Something's Gotta Give — Light and funny romantic comedy — 6*/10

  • Scenario: It doesn't break the mold, but it does have its moments. Hilarity is its strong selling point. You'll have fun. It's not complicated and easy to laugh at without real embarrassment or silly antics, even the unceasing crying and writing, which was a bit much, was funny.
  • Setting: Beautiful and nice to look at though. Rich. As usual, Hollywood is presenting an image of the American dream that the average citizen can't afford.
  • Ending: Too easy, rosy and sweet. Cut it at the bridge before the taxi arrives and it would already be much better.
  • Dialogs: Interesting, well articulated and pretty funny.
  • Characters: Simple with nice details.
  • Acting: Good, although the parts are easy to play.
  • Known actors: Diane Keaton, Jack Nicholson, Amanda Peet, Keanu Reeves, Jon Favreau and Paul Michael Glaser.
  • Special Effects: Few, but well done to the exception of the Eiffel Tower.
  • Synopsis & informationhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0337741/
  • Entertainment value: Pretty good if you don't mind that it's using an age old recipe.
  • Who is it for? Those looking for something easy, romantic and funny and any Keaton or Nicholson fans.
