Film Review: ‘Life as We Know It’ is More Schlock From Katherine Heigl
Submitted by PatrickMcD on October 8, 2010 - 9:43amCHICAGO – Since her breakthrough “comic” role in “Knocked Up,” Katherine Heigl has a line-up of titles that almost reads like parody – “27 Dresses,” “The Ugly Truth,” “Killers” – but there had to be some audience or they really wouldn’t exist.

Watching it on Blu-ray, I was surprised that it didn’t screen because it’s not “Marmaduke”- or “Macgruber”-bad. It’s just shockingly boring.
Blu-Ray Review: ‘The Ugly Truth’ is Neither Funny Nor Romantic
Submitted by BrianTT on November 23, 2009 - 5:02pmCHICAGO – Here’s an alleged romantic comedy as clueless about romance as it is about comedy.
