Jennifer Aniston makes this film for me, 30 March 2010

I had never heard of Jennifer Aniston before seeing this movie but was impressed with her performance. She shows a lot of moxie and spunk as an investigative reporter who has a bad run in with a police horse (!). Gerard Butler is her lowlife ex husband reduced to being a bounty hunter who has the "labor of love" to bring her in. Aniston makes this movie worth watching with her grit and street smart, Butler's character is such a loser you can practically smell him from your seat. Aniston has a lot of Kate Hepburn in her, when you think of it that is the greatest compliment you can pay an actress. You watch these two and wonder what she ever saw in him. If it weren't for her, his character would have been dead a few times over. I felt like cheering when she tased him and gave him the knee and finally handcuffed him in the end. SPOILER ALERT I knew that they would fall in love again while solving the case, but it just isn't convincing. I can recommend this movie but think its unfair to Jennifer Aniston that in a way she had to do the work of two people. Oh by the way, I wanted to mention that Carol Kane has an amusing cameo in this film. I really loved her work in When A Stranger Calls, License To Drive and Scrooged. Its always a joy seeing her.
