Another Jennifer Aniston rom-com - REALLY!?!?!

Not sure maths is quite your strong point. :D

Saying that Goldblum is on better form than usual is saying nothing. He is clearly struggling on screen here, which in places is quite embarrassing. You know that his last decent leading man role was in 1986 (The Fly) right?!

And have you seen Bateman when he's on form? Any episode of Arrested Development. he's got great potential as a leading man, but he doesn't do himself any favours here.

Agree with you in part about Robinson, but wouldn't go as far as saying astonishing though. Still, he gives the best performance out of any other cast member, which quite the indictment.

But if that's your 75% of what's good about the film, then in a sense you're right, as it's easy to ignore. :rolleyes:
 
But what's the point of a review if it ignores a huge swathe of the film? Aniston isn't particularly impressive in The Switch but there's more to the film than Jennifer Aniston. If you don't like a film it's fine to say so, but don't pretend it's a review.
 
Hmm so now you've changed from 75% to 'huge swathe'? Not sure that's helping your cause any.:D

And are you saying that a review has to be positive, otherwise it's not a review?!

The review clearly states what's wrong with the film, and it says that there's far more wrong with it than just Aniston. You may not (actually you clearly don't!) agree with it, but it doesn't make the review any less valid.
 
I was dragged to this tonight and confidently expected to hate it, or at least to be completely indifferent. But curiously, I found a lot to like about it.

Like most films of its type, it's fairly predictable all the way through. But in tone and focus, it wasn't really what I was expecting. It wasn't really a Jennifer Aniston film at all.

The child was very good, and he and Jason Bateman were excellent together. The scenes they shared were the best of the film.

Okay, so it wasn't a challenging film that broke any moulRAB, but it was a pleasant diversion. I liked it.
