Am I the only one who liked the movie?

After coming home from the movie tonight, I was sort of surprised and disappointed to see everyone on here dissing the movie for one reason or another. Going to see it, you had to know it would be in a lot of ways similar to Valentine's Day, but as someone who liked the other film as well, I thought this one was a lot better.

First off, the Efron/Pfeiffer thing was sweet not creepy. If you can't understand why he did what he did well then that is some soul searching for you. Second, having the different ages and celebrities meshed up with the others made the movie less predictable for a change. *Spoiler* Who thought Josh was going to end up with Hilary? My point exactly.

For me going to a movie is a way to escape from some of the harsh reality and suckiness of my day. I went to see this with my sister who I am leaving tomorrow to go back to college 700 miles away. We laughed, cried and looked at each other which is what anyone hopes to experience during a movie.

That is my story and I am sticking to it.

I would rather suck a fart out of a flatulent water hog, than finish watching this steaming pile of warped diarrhea.

I enjoyed it. Also, I have never seen so many A and B listers in a single movie before! Even if some were bit parts or cameos, I found that entertaining.

No. And I think many people didn't hate this movie. I know that this kind of movie is just romantic comedies but it makes us happy and make us smile. There were some characters disappointed me a little bit but I don't mind cause some impressed me. Overall it's really great.

i finally just watch this movie and i'm not dissappointed in the sense its as bad as i thought it would be, that said it was easier to digest than the valentine one!
the movie was just flat all through with exception of sofia vergara scenes, she felt alive and in character, jon bon jovi was good too, i didnt mind josh duhamel stint but yeah him and sjp sure why not! i guessed 5mn before who hillary swank was going to see,

the worst for me had to be the whole pregnancy competition so ridiculous and lame!and the teens scenes too both felt thrown in there for no other reasons than to say hey a representation of our teen target audience and moms at home!

they had halle berry and alyssa milano and both underuse pff go figure! it was nice to see halle berry chat with soldier husband...
but kinda meh they had robert de niro die on NY EVE
mostly i thought the blooper reel was funnier than the entire movie

ps: never got impression zac and michelle were getting romantically involved at any moment, the guy decided to be nice with her and make her resolution list come true even if at first he was only doing it for ticket to a so-so party!!!
