The Bounty Hunter

How empty is my documents file when I have been forced to watch 'The Bounty Hunter' with Gerard Butler and Jennifer Aniston. I like him, he does good comedy. However, she is suffering by that 'Tom Cruise Factor'.

She can't really get into character because each movie is just Jennifer Aniston on a boat, Jennifer Aninston in space, Jennifer Aniston on crack, ect....

This movie is also a Hollywood hack's wet dream. Throw together a fugitive with her sloppy ex-husband, a bounty hunter on her trail. Give them three days to hate each other and then fall back in love. Do this all while avoiding getting killed by some bad cops and we got us a mega hit. Bleh!

Set up other characters that will somehow be useful thoughout the film and create some bullshit murder mystery that means nothing. GAH. Nothing is the least bit original or interesting about this film.

You know it was written after they secured Aniston. I can see everyone involved thinking this was another gritty urban comedy.

I suppose I should be happy that this action rom/com doesn't star Hugh Grant or Sarah Jessica Parker. Here's a secret guys. If you get dragged to the movies on 'ladie's choice' night, you an do much worse. I hate myself for actually smiling and laughting a number of times.
