how do you know review

hey fans of Nairobi diary,

how do you know is a movie starring jack Nicholson, Reese witherspoon, Owen Wilson,  Paul Rudd and other familiar and non familiar faces . its basically drama and comedy. directed by james l brooks.






 Lisa (Reese) is an athlete whose career comes to an abrupt end. which leaves her time to focus on her relationship which clearly she never had time for before . She has an on and off boyfriend called Matty (Owen) . he is sweet and funny though not exactly the commitment type kind of guy (player).she also  meets George (Paul) who also seems to be at a dead end in his carrer , thanks to his dad (jack). they immediately connect despite the fact that they have nothing in common .And behold a love triangle is formed.


Truth be told the movie doesn't exactly have a good plot and its tooooooooo long .How do you know when you are in love??? is what its about but don't be surprised when u know nothing (if you get what i mean) love able characters with confusing roles. If you find yourself not connecting with Lisa and her emotions feel free to join my club. it a good example of how a movie with many characters doesn't exactly mean the movie is good. and Lisa and Matty clearly have no problem advertising a relationship just based on sex. and Jack`s performance is so shallow and minimal can you spell disappointment any louder. i just enjoyed the last 30 minutes and some rare humor . Though all in all its an entertaining movie, but that's just about it.

4/10
