He's Just Not That Into You
Claudia PuigHope is a much-valued commodity lately, and underlying the caustic humor, it also is the theme of He's Just Not That Into You. The movie has a few too many story threads, but it also has some very funny lines and offers sharp-eyed commentary on the state of relationships in the era of instant messages and MySpace. Not surprisingly, things are not all that different from romance in the days of the carrier pigeon. Rationalizations may be more creative and portals more numerous, but humans continue to obfuscate the obvious: If he wants to see you, he'll call. And the same goes for her.

While Gigi's friends talk her off the figurative ledge, it's Alex who lets her in on a few things, such as how to tell if a guy is never going to call,...
He's Just Not That Into You
Betsy SharkeyInto the current silly season at the cinema, when moviegoers' craving for something light, quick and easy to consume seems to be enormous -- Paul Blart: Mall Cop anyone? -- comes a genial confection of a romantic comedy, He's Just Not That Into You.
Well, to be more precise, He's Exactly Not is a sort of anti-extravagant unrealistic comedy; instead of all the weepy, emotional, wishes-they-in any case-get-together scenes, the filmmakers be dressed opted as a substitute for to explain why they won't. The CliffsNotes answer? Because in most cases, he (or she) is just not that into you, a fa‡on de parler that will be implied many times beyond the film's two-plus hours (which sounds a lot but actually comes down to involving seven minutes per inimit...
