I Love Trouble is a 1994 romantic action comedy film directed by Charles Shyer and stars Julia Roberts, Nick Nolte, Kelly Rutherford, Late Robert Loggia, Late James Rebhorn and Saul Rubinek.

Peter and Sabrina work for different newspaper agencies and are assigned to cover the same story for their respective newspapers. Despite of differences they decide to work together to unearth a sinister plot and which also leads them to fall in love with each other.

I love trouble is a very interesting film and has all the scope to turn into a great action comedy film but due to some immature handling and cliched execution specially in the second half the films turns to be just one time watch film.

The plot of the film is good and execution is little above average. The film shows the competition between two rival journalist covering same pieces of news and trying to outshine each other with one being one of the acclaimed and another rising star and then they starts their own methods to demean each other professionally and then decided to join hands together to uncover a sinister plan and in the process falls in love. The film was running nicely till they were in competition but falling in love looked cliched and could've been avoided.

The screenplay of the film is decent with superb first half and under cooked or under developed second half, it seems that they were not able to write or execute the second half properly. The film also falters at places in second half. The climax of the film is predictable but decent. Cinematography, Back ground music and action scenes are good.

In Acting department Nick Nolte was superb, Julia Roberts was good but looked little nervous in some of the scenes. Saul Rubinek was also terrific. Robert Loggia and James Rebhorn were also perfect.

Overall with s superb first half and somewhat clumsy but decent second half the film is a good one time watch!!
