“I never could understand the reason behind such hate for this movie. Itu0026#39;s based on a book, yes, but since when are movies ever better than books anyway?nWith that said, this movie is relatable to me. When it first came out, I was in my late 20u0026#39;s, close in age to the characters in the movie, with a best friend Iu0026#39;ve known since I was 10 years old. Hence, if you are a chick who has a lifelong childhood friend who is 30, you will probably love this movie. If you didnu0026#39;t, you missed the whole point.nPeople who review it, want to say itu0026#39;s u0026quot;immoralu0026quot; or has u0026quot;bad actingu0026quot;. News flash: reality for a lot of people, IS immoral. Many women deal with this kind of situation everyday. Yes Rachel was a doormat, but we all have that one friend. And yes, Darcy was a selfish beotch, but thatu0026#39;s how a lot of women act these days, especially in a city like NYC. All in all, I thought the actors were perfectly cast.. the acting? Kate Hudson is always great, and John Krasinski is an amazing comedic actor. Ginnifer Goodwin has played better roles, but she did a good job as the submissive, never-sticks-up-for-herself-friend Rachel. Colin Egglesfield is pure eye candy, bearing a very close resemblance to a young Tom Cruise, itu0026#39;s easy to see why these two women are both head over heels for him,nThis movie is not meant to be taken too seriously, yu0026#39;all. Itu0026#39;s a light comedy with a look at what it might be like if you were in love with someone who you never thought would like you back, let alone marry your best friend. The truth is, there are more than likely people like this, who are in a similar situation, but never had the nerve to tell the other person how they felt.nFor those who bash the movie – youu0026#39;re completely missing the point of it. The moral? Life is too short to go about it, never telling people how you really feel. If you donu0026#39;t, your decisions might later on prove to just benefit someone else, someone you might even know personally. And if so, you might have to live with the mistake of seeing it right in front of you everyday.nLighten up people. Itu0026#39;s a movie. Appreciate the humor, the message, and most of all, the moral of it. Howu0026#39;s that for being u0026quot;immoralu0026quot;?nOut.”
