I do like Jennifer Garner, even though lots of people think she's sort of odd-looking and therefore difficult to watch.
That said, this is a pretty fluffy and silly movie. And yet, I really kinda liked it.
Sure, there's lots of stupidity, and the character development and ideas presented are pretty high concept. But for the first time, I got to experience a movie pretty much marketed directly at me, and it was sort of enjoyable to catch all the little references to 80's stylee and the attempt to bring them into the present time as some sort of conceptual bridge.
I dunno. Like I said, high concept. But dude, the party scene for the magazine when Jenna goes out on the floor? I was laughing my ass off. Totally fun.
This movie features a semi-fun semi-cringeworthy appearance by Andy Serkis. Heh.
