Summary:
The words "subtle" and "Ashton Kutcher" rarely appear in the same sentence, but here goes: A Lot Like Love, a romantic comedy starring Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet, is surprisingly and pleasantly subtle. The story starts when Emily (Peet, Igby Goes Down) and Oliver (Kutcher, Dude, Where's My Car?) meet on a flight to New York and have a tryst in the airplane bathroom. After a day's dalliance, they part and don't meet again for four years--when they meet, spend a day together, part, and don't meet again until...you begin to get the idea. The script could have been dangerously cute, but director Nigel Cole (who helmed the delightful Calendar Girls) carefully steers Peet and Kutcher, two actors not generally noted for their grasp of character nuance, towards fairly three-dimensional portrayals of two floundering twentysomethings who can't seem to find the right moment. There are a few rom-com cliches--at one point, Oliver serenades Emily in front of an audience of her neighbors--but most of the movie is low-key, engaging, and smacks of actual human experience. Also featuring Kal Penn (Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle) and Kathryn Hahn (Anchorman).

A Lot Like Nothing

Customer Rating:

Sitting through this film was sometimes painful and other times aggravating. You know the characters really belong together and YOU can tell the characters know that themselves, but the viewer gets dragged through a false start, pretentious plot twist of the flower peddle parable, " He loves me, he loves me not." By the end of the movie I was saying aloud, "you guys are just plain STUPID." My annoyance factor was raised so high it overshadowed any positive impression the film could have made for me.

The actors and the acting are not bad at all. Just pretentious, which I can't blame them for (that falls on the director). However, it is obvious that Amanda Peet is more of an actor than Ashton Kutcher is. She supplied more depth to her character. There is just something one dimensional about Kutcher that he can't overcome. Whether it is lack of ability or training, or both I don't know. But there is nothing memorable or becoming about his performance here. Peet's performance stand's farther out. It's just sad the director didn't let her take-off with it. It seems grounded in many parts of the film.

Good for a single view, but not worth repeating.

The first copy of this DVD I got had a big slice mark across the whole cover from top to bottom, so I went online and the even exchange process was so easy. I was able to print out the shipping label and everything right at home. And my replacement DVD came very quickly so the whole thing went splendidly. Thanks!!!!

Customer Rating:

A Lot Like Love starring Amanda Peet and Ashton Kutcher was a pleasant surprise. I was little hesitant to watch this movie, I thought it was gonna lack substance and intimacy but I enjoyed this film from beginning to end. The chemistry between Peet and Kutcher is sexy and endearing. Kutcher really proves himself than being just a goofball in previous films and Peet really shows her range as an actress (I think she is so under-rated sometimes!) The story is about two strangers who meet on an airplane and don't meet until several years later, and then meet again many years after that as well. I hope A Lot Like Love gets you in a romantic mood, defintely a date movie. Happy viewing!

Better than expected

I ignored this movie when it came out in theaters. I had assumed it would be dumb and corny. Then I saw it on one of the movie channels and bought the DVD the same night. It's every bit as funny as it's supposed to be, and much better overall than you think it's going to be. My wife is listening to the soundtrack and dancing around the room as I write this. Even the music is good. Ashton Kutcher does an excellent job playing Oliver, the man with the 6 year plan for the perfect life. Amanda Peet is extremely entertaining as the phantom girlfriend, here today and gone tomorrow, only to reconnect a few years later again and again. Amanda and Ashton are clearly having a genuinely good time together as they make this film, and you see that it's real when you watch the bloopers in the extra features. The ending is not entirely predictable, although you can't say you didn't see it coming. But even so, it doesn't matter because it's what you wanted anyway. This is a good movie. Trust me. You'll like it.
