I'm a woman, and I found the film absolutely hilarious. I saw it twice while it was in theaters.

It's all been downhill since then.

They had motives behind what they did, and they were both nice people at the core. They weren't just bitchy for the sake of being a shrew, and they both also came across as sensitive, caring women. The fantasy baseball scene was a good character moment for Mann's character. It wasn't that she hated that he was having fun, it was that she couldn't understand why he needed to be away from her, but at the same time she needs that time away too, but didn't really know it. The best thing to me is that with both Mann and Paul Rudd and with Rogen and Heigl, both characters were right and both were wrong in most of their arguments. Like Rudd's character said, their biggest argument is that she loves him too much. The film was about people growing up and learning to live happily within that most unnatural act of living with another person (and raising children).

IMO she's the bitch... not her character.. Tue, 04 Dec 2007 13:03:39 -0500 http://www.indy.com/posts/2391#comment_7534 http://www.indy.com/posts/2391#comment_7534 Garin and you waited a good while!

With all they hype, I think I just expected so much more from this film. I really didn't find it funny. Maybe there was one or two scenes I felt I actually laughed, but I couldn't wait for the movie to be over.

Seemed sort of sophomoric to me, though I'll admit to laughing out loud when the friend walked into the delivery room and saw a few things he wasn't expecting. Just my 2 cents.

The few times I've seen her speak in interviews or read about her, she's come across as being a bit "bitchy" herself. That's not going to get you far in that industry if you start burning bridges early.
