Search: Starring Jennifer Aniston

To say that this is nothing like funny enough is to suggest that it's not funny at all, which is wrong, because it is, some of the time.

The trouble is you don't care

The romantic plot is wisely kept in its place and doesn't overwhelm the more complex story of the developing relationship between mother and daughter.

Owen can do this kind of thing standing on his head, while balancing a cage of turtledoves.

The script is full of witty gems, while still remaining rooted in reality.

Comedy this dark is a rarity. It deserves to be cherished.

A warm, wise and witty examination of male/female relations so grounded in the real that makes Sex and the City look as insightful as a stool softener TV ad.

Jennifer Aniston is an absolute revelation, burning up the screen in her sleaziest and possibly funniest performance to date.

There are no winners, only casualties

The film works on almost every level, particularly its central relationship.

The most romantic thing about this movie is the lovingly shot images of Seattle.

The strength of this story is its simplicity, yet, at a full two hours, that's also its weakness.

There is nothing remotely inviting, funny or admirable about it

Rock Star has the beat. It even has the vibe. But it ain't got the soul.

Aniston... spends much of the picture grimacing and stroking her stomach, rather as if she is about to be ill. Perhaps this is because she realised she was now contractually obligated to finish the picture.

The cast are terrific, and the comic set pieces are handled with precision and impeccable timing, even if not all of the jokes hit home.

The plot pigs out on possibilities but the characters are great and if you can keep up with the speed of events you won't be disappointed.

Thurber directs with broad brush strokes rather any finesse although the myriad close calls, mistaken identities and persuasions do produce their moments.
