One should not be a reviewer of a film in which a colleague has a gig. Richard Roeper (who together with Ebert forms the Chicago Sun-Times film critic team) said that he did not like the film based on the trailer, but came to like it quite a bit. This is chick\u2019s film and not one that Roeper would have praised if his colleague Kevin Smith did play a role (Smith sometimes replaces Roger Ebert in the critic’s seat). Catch and Release<\/em> has an interesting twist for a romantic comedy. It opens with a tragedy (the fianc\u00e9 dies just before the wedding and the wedding is turned into the funeral.) If you are female and you are in the mood for a romantic comedy where romance often fails, you might not be disappointed. But I strongly recommend that before seeing the film you read the first chapter on America in Pamela Druckerman\u2019s book Lust in Translation<\/em>. You will have much deeper understanding of why the characters in the film feel the way they do. For guys Catch and Release<\/em> is just to slow. If your girl wants to see this film, go to another room and watch instead A heart in the winter (Un Coeur en hiver)<\/em>, an excellent French movie which guys like much more than girls. Every guy I know loved the film and every girl found it depressing!<\/p>\n
