eva mendes character is a b!tch


not likeable at all

"ATTICA, ATTICA, ATTICA, HE WANTS TO KILL ME SO BAD HE CAN TASTE IT"

I couldn't pay enough attention to decide one way or the other, but she was certainly loud, aggressive and uninteresting. Worst thing about a poor film. Eva is good-looking, but her character in this was dreadful.

Several things I didn't like about this movie but this is the worst. She is a bitch to me because not only did she ruin his career, she had the mistaken idea that what she did, chase people everywhere and act like it's perfectly fine, is okay and not like what he did. At one point in the movie, her and her boss, have a conversation that sounds like they think they own, or have the right, to Allegra's life. I would have been much happier if he had ended up with her friend, Casey, and I found the relationship between Albert and Allegra much more entertaining.

I came here hoping this conversation was going!

I watched this and thought that her character had to have been the most unlike female lead I've ever seen in any rom-com !

She hated men, she ruined Hitch's career and broke up Albert and Alegra - all over her own hatred of men and boy issues.

I was annoyed that Hitch would take her back. IN what world would that happen?

Why would I get so annoyed over a rom-com? Because she was soooooooo unlikable.

I agree.

The role would have been right up Jennifer Lopez's alley...that is if she could act.

Those looking for "sexy" would probably like Sarah Shahi or Eva Longoria.

I like the movie, but yeah I couldn't help but think she was very judgmental and had little compassion. He was just a dating coach which she viewed as awful and then proceeds to ruin his career with little remorse. She's like oh sorry about that. Then it's Smith who chases her at the end to get back together.
