My wife has picked up the mommy porn and yeah - there are some pretty spectacular side-effects. That said, she then tried to convince me that I might enjoy it. So I grabbed the first book and just flipped to a tame section in the middle. That book is High-School quality writing, at best. It's full of cliche'd crap and plot holes. Section of it are over-written as hell while other parts of it are just stilted and nonsensical. It's an awful book. That said, the 'estrogen surge' has women snapping the thing up in droves. I'm not complaining here, but my God, they've kinda exposed themselves as the same hyper-sexed critters they've accused us men of being for so long. Frankly, I think the only real distinction is the lack of outlets.

I wanted to see this when I first read about it. But based on your thoughts and what Bret Easton Ellis has been saying, I'm bumping this up a notch or two on my list.

Its a legit good movie apparantly. It was marketed as a "good time gal pal movie" but thats just to sell tickets and get people in the door.

So I watched this last night with the wife. It's actually very, very good. Not really much of a story, it's more like just a 3 month slice of life.
Interesting style. I liked how a lot of the dialogue and performances seemed improvised and non scripted. Solid flick

This movie sucked.
Olivia Munn was the only thing good about it. |

Nothing stands out.
Just watched Seeking a Friend for the End of the World and Prometheus. Both were pretty good. Took my son to see The Avengers. That was better than I thought. Good action flick and my son enjoyed it. Can't ask for more than that. Overall, this yr has sucked for movies. |

Did you think in the slightest bit that it would even be remotely good?

Watching it on HBO again. Really solid movie that is a lot smarter and better than its boy toy rep is given credit for.
