After watching the new “Love Happens” international movie trailer, I feel like I have seen the whole movie.
I like watching Jennifer Aniston films, but the movie looks like just another cliche — man can’t move forward from the death of his wife … beautiful 30-something woman has given up on men … the two find each other despite obstacles and their baggage … they fall in love … they break up … they get back together in the end. Oh, and of course, each has a less attractive best friend telling them what to do and acting as a sounding board.
Maybe the movie will surprise me if I see it. And I like Aniston and Aaron Eckhart, so I’ll probably rent it. But I doubt I’ll pay $9 to see it in the theater.
“Love Happens” is scheduled to hit theaters Sept. 18.

I love Jennifer Aniston, so I have no doubt I will see this. She looks great in the trailer. But I agree, it won’t be in the theater.
I agree I like Jennifer Aniston too but she really needs to streach her wings a little more and try something different. This looks like a “rent it” for me as well.
I am in the same boat.
Aniston is great. I’ll watch her in just about anything.
This story is funny … and so true.
The Hollywood Reporter just reviewed it — and it wasn’t pretty: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/film-reviews/love-happens-film-review-1004013735.story.
Look how hot she is.
