Not many surprises here. Crusty old bachelor who has managed to live life commitment-free suddenly finds out that commitment might not be so bad. For some reason I'd been expecting something a little less formulaic, but this one was just as predictable as the rest. The only thing that really surprised me was that, although the crusty old bachelor's outlook changed somewhat throughout the movie, his life situation was exactly the same at the end as it was in the beginning. That's slightly depressing.It was strange to see Anna Kendrick acting so formal and business-like and un-funny. She did have a hysterical crying fit and drunken party scene to redeem her part. Otherwise her character would have been just plain boring.
I can't help but wonder if George Clooney is just like his character, Ryan Whoever, in real life, and this is how he has managed to stay so famously unattached.
