Life As We Know It had me!
It had me all the way up to the three quarter mark.
Then then the damn thing flew off the rails like it was Unstoppable...
But, what can I say: I really dug the unlikely but possible set-up. Very nice. Kudos to the writers (at least up until the point I hated them near the end).
And how can you not adore that Katherine Heigl? She's such a capable cutey! Though she will need to keep up her earlier high standards of projects, not go slummin' it in such schmutz as Killers.
Plus I'm pretty much an unabashed Josh Duhamel fanboy ever since the delight known as Win A Date With Tad Hamilton.
Yeah, well... this movie spun it's enchantments only so far (though I almost wish the bad quarter had been any other than the last). To end as this film did - - is to me - - the very definition of disheartening.
If this movie was edited to include a great last act, or even if the existing crappy last act was simply cut out altogether and the film then fades to black with the hip soundtrack swelling in the background, well then I'd rate this SOMB-ROM-COM a 30-55 out of 5.
But as it stands, I gotta dolefully go with a mere:
4 out of 5.
