I really should stop watching movies like this. It makes me hate the life around me, written by the world's most wretched ever screenwriter. Otherwise, Jake is a cool dude playing a typical pretty boy, and he's surprisingly bearable. As for Anne, I can see why we're going to see her in the third Batman. Already here she’s simply divine. Too bad about the crude jokes between the brothers which really don't work, otherwise Zwick serves up a drama "from life" which rides a wave of clichés, but every once in a while... why not? No I'm... I'm knowingly full of shit. (2011.06.27)

Nice pleasant comedy in every way, but it doesn't have anything unique about it, or anything that would specifically annoy me. Anne Hathaway and especially Jake Gyllenhall delivered great characters, with Jack showing how versatile and fine he can be. The romance in the film is clearly felt, but it didn't bother me at all. Maybe it could be a bit shorter and it would be completely ideal. All of this would be a pretty nice review of the film, but it was directed by Edward Zwick, which surprised me. Maybe he just wanted to make something calmer, more relaxed, and in that respect, I must say he succeeded. However, it's a film that you quickly forget, which may be a shame in its case, because what's great about it is that it mainly deals with history and his epic films are very pleasant to watch.

Man, this one cracked me up :-)) The beginning was basically nothing, but once Anne Hathaway appeared on the scene, who, by the way, looked more beautiful than ever, the movie took off... in every way. I liked the dry humor underlined by really good music. Maybe next time I could do without the "lame" (and I say that very nicely) brother. The romance worked here, no question about it. The story was wonderful and perhaps a little original. A happy ending with all the trimmings and then some. I'm surprised, excited, and a little tearful. And I like it, a lot. (2011.03.30)

The golden age of up-and-coming R-rated relationship dramas that artfully oscillate between light comedy and a classy dramatic plot. They're spicier, get deeper under the skin and can be very direct, even improvisational. The cards are dealt quite clearly and the outcome is basically decided, but the most interesting thing is the journey from A to Z. The chemistry between Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal is remarkable. Edward Zwick surprised with his choice of genre and even more so with the agility and awareness of his execution. (2017.03.13)

An inconspicuous pearl that only gains its true luster with time. Seemingly routine plot lines, slightly formulaic characters from thematically similar romantic comedies, and predictable developments transform into a perfectly complex spectacle with a conceptual and even greater emotional depth in the second half. Edward Zwick directs a romance with a capital 'R' and Anne Hathaway confirms that when it comes to the role of a girl-next-door, she has only minimal competition in contemporary Hollywood.
