But how does he land Jennifer Lawrence?


I liked this movie for the most part, but it had some serious problems the main one being these two questions -

1) How does he even land Jennifer Lawrence?
shes way too hot for him.

2) Why does she even like him?
as far as I can tell he is usually just moping around about his british girl.

Had they given more consideration towards casting they would have put somebody in Lawrence's role that was just kind of bleh, average, like he got with her because she was around.

Also why was Samantha (Lawrence) given two lines of dialogue, give her her moment you know?

oh well, still not a bad film, thought it would be worse.

1)Looks are part of it but they don't define everything. An average looking guy with charisma and presence can land a gorgeous woman.
2) JLaw is average.
3) Her character seems to have issues, that's why she accepts to live with someone who has an on and off situation with his wife TWICE.

I had to suspend my disbelief when Jennifer Larence bounced into the room. And the most ridiculous line in the movie was from her to him - Do you want me to iron your jeans?

I was frowning at this line as well O.o but there have been others way more ridiculous ;)
