Movie Review: Life As We Know It


The previews for Life As We Know It do a very good job of telling you everything about this movie. It follows the usual romantic-comedy formula in placing two wildly incompatible people together through some contrived act of fate and then spends the rest of its time making you laugh at their mistakes and hope they eventually see a way to get together. I'm sure that if you've seen more than five romantic comedies in the last ten years then you could write this movie yourself. It has a few saving graces, but doggedly sticks to the rom-com formula, even when diverging into originality might've helped it stand out from the crowd.
