A Lot Like Love

cast: Ashton Kutcher, Amanda Peet

The good: that one scene near the end during the wedding
The bad: everything wrong about American culture
Two strangers have sex on a plane lavatory and from there, well, you shouldn't really bother.

Such is the story between Oliver (Ashton), and Emily (Amanda). Both are disgruntled individuals who have such bad luck, it seems, with love. Of course, in American terms love means sex. Sad to say.

From a moral standpoint, the film shows everything that is wrong with popular American (or even western) culture - pre-marital or casual sex, divorce etc. - and from a quality standpoint, well, it won't even pass the supposedly ridiculously easy Philippine NEAT exams. Shame.

I have so much beef with this film that its hard to even write about them. Ashton Kutcher films tend to be on the bad side, but this once goes way overboard. (1/5)
