Just Like Heaven

 

 

'Just Like Heaven' presents yet another Reese Witherspoon romantic comedy made by a studio committee. With an icky and clichéd story to play with, Witherspoon and her co-star, Mark Ruffalo, have little to work with, which they both seem OK with. Dreadful and endless, 'Heaven' is anything but. During the screening I attended, the film broke twice. Maybe that was a sign.
 
I understand that 'Just Like Heaven' is supposed to be cute and harmless. However, I find it difficult to just stand by and recommend a film that is striving for mediocrity and didn't even manage to achieve that. Romantic comedies can withstand a lot more heart and respect, and this tripe doesn't bother with either...Poor
