'marry me' sucks
'marry me' is jennifer lopez's latest movies. in many ways, it's a return to her hey-day as a film star because she's in a romantic comedy. she used to make those a lot: 'maid in manhattan,' 'monster-in-law,' 'the wedding planner,' etc.
i love romantic comedies.
i hate 'marry me.'
jennifer's not bad. she's funny and she's likeable.
the film might have been something if armie hammer had been it. instead, they replaced him. there are actors that they could have replaced him with who could have done the job.
instead, they went with owen wilson.
owen.
wilson.
broken nose, whiney voiced, ugly body, short, suat, owen wilson.
no woman wants to f**k him. does any man?
he's disgusting and should have ben run out of hollywood long ago. luke wilson is the better looking brother but he's just pretty, not even handsome.
owen is butt ugly and has a track record of failure.
he tanks this movie. no surprise.
he's chemsitry-free and has no sex appeal.
you keep thinking, 'jennifer could do so much better.' after awhile, you start to feel sorry for her. she clearly spends at least 90 minutes a day working out. forget weights, owen silson doesn't even look like he can handle a shower.
this film is garbage and it's what helped kill romantic comedies.
they were a hugely successful genre.
then ugly men thought they could be stars.
ben stiller did not carry 'there's something about mary.' that film's scuccess was as much due to cameron diaz (especially her) and matt dillon as it was to ben. but we got stuck with big ear ben making bad romantic comedies with drew barrymore and others. awful, awful films. we also had the flabby and dirty jon cusack thinking he was a romantic comedy actor. 'america's sweetheart' should have made it clear that he has no appeal. and don't forget billy crystal who thought he - and not meg ryan - was responsible for the success of 'when harry met sally ...' and went on to make disasters like 'forget paris.'
we need sexy men with sexy women. don't cast j-lo opposite crap like own wilson and expect us to think it's a romantic comedy.
let's close with c.i.'s 'Iraq snapshot:'
