Something's gotta give depicts an aging man who's spent his life with young women, but never fallen in love. when by chance he meets one of these girls widowed mother, he finds his feelings for the mum grow after being forced in her company. The film then follows their relationship throughougt, with an almost cameo appearance from Keanu Reeves who still acts like he's just woken up at 2:00 in the morning. (btw, for all i insult keanu's acting, he's one top man, apparently very generous to his stunt men in terms of gifts and also gives immense amounts to charity, hats off to him). But my point is the first half of the film was quite fast paced and funny, i laughed out loud at several bits. And then it decided it would become serious and try and get across a decent meaning, the jokes dried up and it became repetetive, predictable, and boring. Perhaps as an 18 year old bloke being dragged along to a romantic comedy i'm being biased, since my parents loved it. But I could have left it, and as my ears picked up so could much of the audience.
Something had to give, in this case it was my sanity as I started thinking what it owuld be like to walk again as the credits began to roll.
