Movie #365 "How Do You Know" I saw because it was a romantic comedy (my favorite genre) and it was directed by James L. Brooks. The movie was too pushed in it style of acting ---- the more than capable actors were working too hard, and it was noticeable. The flow was start and stop, start and stop ---- and so the film came across kind of uneven to me. I found it enjoyable in that it tried to surprise the audience many times --- and with me, it was successful in that area, but what I got out of it is all surmising --------I'm thinking the answer to how do you know is just that you do --------you end up with someone who gets you -----and I guess that goes for the film, too. You would really, really appreciate it if you got it more than I did. I just thought it was entertaining, and that's it. And that's because I find all three of the leads so good: Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd and Owen Wilson. Jack Nicholson has never been a favorite of mine --- I always think he chews up the scenery, and he sure did here. no doubt.
