Critics Consensus

Despite the best efforts of a talented cast, He's Just Not That Into You devotes too little time to each of its protagonists, thus reducing them to stereotypes.

This actually could've been a decent RomCom if it just trimmed down on the ensemble cast and tighten the narrative a bit more. The biggest flaw is the terrible editing. This jumps around CONSTANTLY with different subplots that feel more like a compilation especially in the first half than a characters who share the same story. None of the stories really compliment each other and just kind of show the cliches of relationships. They never feel like though they add to a central theme. The transitions with the random people commenting on their relationships should've been cut. I honestly didn't know that they all knew each other until midway because it's so jumpy and unfocused. It does get significantly better in the second half when it focuses just on the Main girl and Connolly. Everything else is just ok about this. Cooper has no real chemistry with anyone, Most of the side characters don't have much depth to them. Surprisingly the best things in this are Long and Connelly who are half decent surprisingly. This also alternates between subpar dialogue that acknowledges the cliches it's doing and giving witty lines out of no where. Also none of the settings are really memorable or shot in a way that makes them memorable. Honestly if characters like Aniston/Affleck, Barrymore, and the random Segway interviews would've been cut and spent more time seeing the remaining characters develop in a shared setting more than just exchanging banter in the office for a minute here and there and a tighter script this could've been good. Unless your a big fan of Long or Connelly, I can't really recommend this to anyone. There are much better RomComs and better stuff these actors have all done.

0 complaint. Assertive Affleck not allowing nurturing Aniston to have what she wants, warm Johansson becoming married man's side dish etc are just so correctly laid in the storyline.

What's surprising is how many marquee names [Ken] Kwapis has lined up for these regurgigated romantic lectures on when to know when someone is into someone.

Deep Focus Review

The stories will have audiences saying, “I know just how they feel.” And since your standard Hollywood rom-com often avoids reality whatsoever, the mild dose of truth in He’s Just Not That Into You is both refreshing and welcomed.

Rated: 2.5/4

Gone With The Twins

Although it's disguised as a Valentine's Day flick, and the advertising tries to convince that it isn't filled exclusively with mushy stuff, it's certainly not fun-loving.
