He’s Just Not That Into You comes out on DVD today and, after missing it in theaters, I’ve been looking forward to the DVD release. Despite being Sex and the City scribes Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo (which is so geared towards women that even I couldn’t stand to watch it), this movie seems like something that both guys and girls could enjoy watching. Plus, it’s got an amazing cast!
There are nine central characters including Gigi (Ginnifer Goodwin) who falls for friendly guys like Conor (Kevin Connolly) but is set straight when she meets Alex (Justin Long), who delivers some “tough love” when it comes to what men say and what they mean when they say it.
Then there’s Gigi’s co-workers, Beth (Jennifer Aniston), whose boyfriend of seven years, Neil (Ben Affleck)doesn’t believe in marriage, and Janine (Jennifer Connelly) whose husband, Ben (Bradley Cooper) has a wandering eye.
As if that wasn’t enough of a complicated storyline, there’s Anna (Scarlett Johansson), a singing yoga instructor and Mary (Drew Barrymore), a saleswoman who somehow links all of these stories together.
The ironic thing about this movie might be what happened off-camera. Executive producer, Drew Barrymore, was dating her co-star, Justin Long, but, before the movie premiered they called it quits but had to embark on the press junket together. I guess he just wasn’t that into her…
