Love and Other Drugs (Zwick, 2010)

This is a cute film, and the leads are excellent, especially Anne Hathaway who are becoming more and more one of my favorite young actresses. She is just marvelous; sympathetic,fragile, strong, and funny in the same time. She lights up the screen when she is on, Stealing Jake Gyllenhaal thunder even though he is really funny in his other scenes. I love how this film was set in the 90's, THE golden age of Rom-Com. What I did not like was the younger needy annoying young brother, he sucks the air of the film every time he opens his mouth. Also the sex and nudity was excessive and distracting must of the times. We get it, those are beautiful people who have sex a lot. We don't really have to see that every time they actually do it.

Overall, I don't think it is a great film story-wise, but the chemistry between the two leads was storng and sexy and that was the reason why the film kind of works.

My Rating 3/5
