Yesterday, in our little cinema session we watched the film: "He is just not that into you".Lots of Hollywood stars in it as an attractive. The film is not bad, just maybe, too long. But the story itself, that is interesting.
It tells some parallel stories about different people with different lifestyles, but with the same "doubts" about love and marriage. At least, in my view, that is what the film was all about. Questions everybody asks themselves the entire time. Is he/she the one? Is it right? How do I know our wedding is good and it will last forever? Are these the signs? Is he going to call back?
The main characters I identified were the married one and who was sure her wedding was perfect with the perfect guy; the girl who had a boyfriend for seven years, but never received a proposal; and the one who was always meeting new guys and looking for the one, but they never called back, and also a bit neurotic with this matter.
The film was well organized, by its end we realize that things are not not necessary that what we think they are.
Weeeelll, if you are interested in watching the film so don't go ahead, because there is going to be some spoiler.
As the want-to-get-married girl realizes her boyfriend is never going to propose because he doesn't believe in marriage, she breaks up with him. Then, after seeing how is the marriages of her 3 married sisters goes with men who are not able to do anything even when the father-in-law is sick. She comes to see that it is not that important.
The always-looking-for-the-one girl realizes she likes a man who is kind of her friend. Of course he doesn't realize that. Also, he is that type of man who is on command and doesn't stay with one girl. After he starts to miss her and sees his routine affected by the lack of her, sy needs to point out what is happening to him. THis is the nicest story, I think.
And the most troublesome story is the married couple. The woman is the "head" and she decides everything. She decided after high-school that or they get married or they break up , of course the guy is what we call in portuguese "carpet". He agrees with everything all the time, until the day he sees he is not just into that anymore. His wife is another neurotic, her father died of cancer and she can stand anything from the husband, but not smoking. And this is how story goes. They are sure they are a good couple, but things are not always what it seems.
Watch eating popcorn, you will remember "Love actually". Actually, it is not as good as it, but you will enjoy it! or not.
