Love and Other Drugs

Jake Gyllenhaal, Anne Hathaway, Oliver Platt. Dir. Edward Zwick (Defiance, Blood Diamond, The Last Samurai, Courage Under Fire, Legends of the Fall, Glory, About Last Night). Writer: Charles Randolph (The Interpreter, The Life of David Gale).

Alluring free spirit Hathaway won't be tied down, til charming pharmaceutical salesman Gyllenhall shows up. Then he gets the gig selling Viagra. Or something. I can't figure it out. Which might be a good thing. Trailer's a bit of a mess though.

Nah, you know what? I'm not buying this, despite the likeability of everyone involved. Looks like a mildly diverting way to waste an hour and a half, and my life is more valuable than that.

Open to correction as always, especially by someone who's actually seen it. But come on, you have to see a LOT of movies for this to be high on your list, right? Right?
