I preferred the fiance

Cal comes home after being on the road for a week and says about eleven things in a row that reek of shallow thoughtless guy syndrome. That's your subtle cue to hate Mr. Fiance. Another great Hollywood achievement where they hit you over the head, 'cause, like, we wouldn't actually be able to handle any nuance or complexity. What a crummy movie . . . the "I Can't Get No Satisfaction" scene is flabby and pathetic, with no acting in sight for about 5 minutes.

Okay, another complaint about fluffball tropes: Lanie wakes up in Pete's apartment and flips on the TV, only to find three channels in quick succession making fun of her reporting stunt. This tired old trick is even worse than movie characters listening to their answering machines a good decade and a half after *most* people stopped using them. Someone should write a romantic comedy where the two leads can't stop renting Betamax movies. Sorta like a home video Groundhog Day.

are you kidding?
she had no chemistry with cal, you could definitely tell.
he was shallow.
they only got along because neither of them talked...ever.
on the other hand, cameraman accepted her for who she really was....
he went to NYC to save her...
he didnt want her to stay and take care of his kid...he wanted her to truly be happy with her life.
um, what practical joke? he said he didnt pay the guy to say she would die ((he didnt))

so, what dont you understand?

mistress! what would i get out of that except a passel of brats?!

Not sure if you missed the part when he came home and was getting on her for not taking a shower that day and wearing glasses ... telling her to get laser surgery. When she asked what she loved about her he responded "your ass". Don't think that was the answer she was looking for.
