He's Just Not That Into You

Last week, we managed to squeeze in some time to catch He Just Isn’t That Into You over at Lido. Although it was an early afternoon slot, Lido 1 was comfortably filled and boy, did we have an enthusiastic crowd with us. People clapped and cheered and it was just delightful!

Are you the exception or are you the rule?

Besides it’s impressive cast of bigwig movers and shakers (love love Drew Barrymore), it also portrays a contemporary look at how the game of relationships are played.

We see the characters, incidentally all smoothed skin and shapely; battle expectations versus cinematic reelity as the plot unravels.

What happens if you meet your soulmate after you're married?

Painfully like the real world, sometimes, relationships don’t end up where we would like it to be. While some attempts end with spectacular drama, some fizzle out before we even realize it.

The truth is, everyone struggles with self esteem issues, commitment dilemmas and what-have-you. At the end of the day, what matters, (or should matter) is the courage to put in effort to make the difference in relationships or move on when things don't end up the way we dreamt it would.

If you would like to spend a couple of hours light heartedly, then this movie will appeal to you. However, if you’re after special effects, then do pass.
