Love and Other Drugs

I saw this again today, after having seen it when it was first released; and, being a little older, and a little more world weary, made it even more poignant than the first time around. This isn't your average romcom; it's about us; we, as people whom often live our lives not really understanding or even seeing what our lives are really about, until someone shows you, you. The human condition is painful, and complex, and often the reality of it is hidden by the daily BS we wade through; unthinking and blind, but Maggie is one of those rare characters that can see right through it all. If this film doesn't make a person pause and think about thier life, and those less fortunate that are all around us, then I think there is something fundamentally wrong with them as a person. I feel pity for those reviewers whom only gave it 1 star "waiting for something to happen" because that's probably how thier lives are, and it's only at the end credits of their lives that they will realise, too late, what this film, and thier lives, was about.

I enjoyed the connections between the characters. Diving into how people think and react under certain scenarios. It made me laugh and cry, tut and cry again. It makes you think about how you can accomplish anything in life if you put your mind to it but what really matters the money or what your heart desires not your head. I watched it twice.

a great bitter sweet comedy drama with the gorgeous anne hathaway perfect in the role i love this film so much i already bought the blu ray a great buy

Great movie

What starts off promising rom-com turns a bit lack-lustre near the end. Enjoyable, but also very heavy! Would recommend, but again make sure you're willing to go the 'long haul' to get to the end as most would get a little bored at places. Very funny in other places though thanks to Jake Gyllenhaal

Brilliantly acted. Bit predictable, but well filmed enjoyable love story. Good entertainment and really worth the watch. Lots of messages in there if you really want to start looking. I loved it for what it was , certainly something you can watch and enjoy more than once. Highly Recommended

Problem was it wasn't funny, certainly not a fraction as funny as it thought it was - amazed at how good many of the reviews. Both stars tried hard hard - too hard - and that too was part of the problem

Good viewing but contains a lot of visual sex scenes.

Excellente histoire. Bons acteurs.

Producto en buen estado, excelente peli

Interesante pelicula

Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway give wonderful heartfelt, as well as heart-warming performances in this romantic comedy / drama. It has been a long time since I have enjoyed a film like this, because most are contrived and lack any real depth to them. Not the case with this movie. It's funny, it's mature, it's sexy, and it rings true on many levels...I won't give it away, but it's damn good. I rented it first, then I went right out and bought it in the same day. Life is about intimacy v.s. distance, joy v.s. pain, laughter v.s. tears, and all those other opposing dichotomies, which we must learn (hopefully) in our lifetimes to balance, to maintain a full and healthy exsistence, or better yet, a co-exsistence, while we are here. Oh yeah, and on a purely primal and somewhat adolescent level, I REALLY REALLY LOVED seeing JAKE GYLLENHAAL NAKED, a lot, in all of his god-given finery, during this film! (-: Anne Hathaway has a lot of buff time as well, and has a nice physique, but I'm not so much into the females. But, back to reality, this is a great film...full of laughs and poignant moments.

Una gran bella commedia a scopi morali ! Bravissimi gli attori , si vede e si sente benissimo. CONSIGLIATO !
