Love Happens: Proceed with Caution


So I just saw Love Happens today with Jennifer Aniston and Aaron Eckhart and I have to say, this romantic drama is not all I hoped it would be. 

First of all, the title should be "Death Happens".  Yes, if you have lost a loved one recently or ever... proceed with caution.  The entire movie is about coping with death.  I felt like I was in a 2 hour therapy session rather than a romance movie... 

Secondly, the two leads in this movie just don't have the chemistry going.... For a long time I was waiting for some kissing, or a make out sesh... and NADA.  I didn't feel like they really liked each other and couldn't live without one another until the last ten minutes of the film.  

Third, your going to need some tissues if your a big cry baby...  Here I thought I was going to see an uplifting romance movie, but instead I was stuck watching tons of people go through the grieving process.  Talk about a downer.  (not to bash on the people that have had to confront the grieving process, I'm one of them)

So in the end... nothing happened (for me at least)
