Must Love Dogs (DVD)

saw this advertised on another film.
i liked it and would recomend to a friend.
all about love and the journey to find your perfect partner.
really funny at times and well worth a watch.

I really did enjoy the film very much ,I had see bits of it before, it was well worth getting the dvd to see it propely with a glass of wine. in fact i brought another copy to give out at Xmas time!

This is one for the ladies, who like love and romance. When I first watched this film, I kad to buy it to add to my collection of movies that can be watched over and over again and never get bored off.

I had seen this film before I bought it, which should say something right? Well, actually the film is not bad but it doesn't really rate more than an average. John Cusack was about the best thing (person?) in the film and without him, I'd probably have given the film a 'below average' rating. His lines were good and he delivered them well. Diane Lane too was good also except I didnt really see any chemistry between them until right at the end. Dermot Mulroney was BAD. His acting was just so bland and lucklustre, there were several scenes where I was just sitting there wondering what on earth he was doing and what the director was thinking. Most of his scenes left me thinking 'is that all he was really supposed to do/say?'

Having said that, I think the film is worth watching. The story line is nothing new, but that's not inherently a bad thing. It was mostly funny, though there were not many laugh out loud scenes. I enjoyed the dialogues between Diane Lane and John Cusack and between John Cusack and his friend (can't remember his name) and some of the ones between Diane Lane and her sister. The rest of the film is negligible, apart from those involving Diane Lane's dad which I felt were just okay.

There were a few annoying scenes, annoying because they didn't really make sense and/or were quite unnecessary but were included because they are cliches which I guess the director or whomever felt would look good. The ending for example, with Diane Lane, her dog, the rowers, etc. was a 'love always wins' kind of scene which I found quite silly.

I had seen it before when it was shown in the plane I was travelling in. It was a long flight and I was half asleep so hadnt really followed the film properly but I decided to buy it afterwards as it had looked interesting. I did find it interesting and don't think it was a waste of money buying it but it's certainly not an excellent film. I'd say it's probably just a film for girls. Guys, even those that like romantic films, are unlikely to really like this one.

i love this fims! i bought it because i had seen it before and wanted it. i really like the actors in it and own other films with them in it
