Borrowed

Well I can't find a photo to accompany this almost worthless piece of trash movie, but any romantic 'comedy' that manages not to make a man cringe is worth talking about. Women, especially single women, love this stuff. I don't know why, but i think it satisfies the Cinderella or Barbie fantasy, while men hate it, because almost every RC reduces men to gas station pumps. Good for one or two babies, but not much more than that.

Romantic comedies always make me question female sexuality and in this one, there is Goldie Hawn's daughter (who is finally starting to look pretty), and Ginnifer Goodwin, who has a single way of acting in every single series or movie she has been in. Kate Hudson is the slutty active go-getter, and Ginnifer is the woman who holds the coats. The men (there are 3, and the 3rd is the only reason I went to see this stupid movie) are xxxxyyyyxxxxyyyxxxyyy (I can't remember his name but he is as bland as white bread), another guy xxxxyyyyxxxxyyyyxxxx (I also can't remember his name because he is as bland as white bread, toasted), and finally Jon Krasinski, who gets shafted.

What impressed me about the movie in the overall scheme of things is that not everyone ended up happy, not all friendships were renewed, no plots really came to a happy ending, including the pregnancy of one and the marriage or the other. But if Kate Hudson wants to save her career she needs to start playing really bad bitches. Like Joan Crawford like villains. I know she loves her blond hair, but when she gets angry on screen, it's almost frightening.
