How Do You Know Audience Reviews

Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Pluskylang Great Film overall
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
quintyvullers These are 2 hours of my life I will never get back
nemysinger Ok, so I went into this thinking- The ratings are pretty bad, but then again how bad can a movie with Paul Rudd and Reese Witherspoon be? Oh, and Owen Wilson. And i was right. Granted, it was no Notting Hill, but then again most romantic comedies aren't. I would even go as far as to say that this movie has been wrongly characterized and is more of a romantic movie with a couple of chuckles. While the plot and character development could've used just a little fixing up, I'm glad this movie was made, and I'm glad I had the chance to see it.
Python Hyena How Do You Know (2010): Dir: James L. Brooks / Cast: Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd, Owen Wilson, Jack Nicholson, Kathryn Hahn: Here is a two part film about fate that involves Reese Witherspoon and two men in her life. She was just let go as a soft ball coach and struggles to maintain her composure. Paul Rudd plays a date whom she learns is up on legal charges within his business although he claims innocence. Owen Wilson plays her athletic boyfriend who is so use to picking up women that he fails to grasp the concept of a real relationship. Directed by James L. Brooks who helmed such classics as Terms of Endearment and Broadcast News. His films often study the struggle of relationships verses profession. The subplots are divided within either male Witherspoon happens to be in sequence with. She is weighing her options and despite both males having good points, only one can win her over. Rudd comes off as stressed yet finds relief in Witherspoon. His job is a pressure under circumstances he is unable to make clear, but she provides temporary release. Wilson brings the most humour in his constant screwing up. Witherspoon moves in with him but his emotional understanding is questionable at best. Jack Nicholson plays Rudd's father in a limited yet scene stealing role where Rudd is forced to make a crucial decision. Kathryn Hahn plays a pregnant secretary who gives inside information to Rudd that could save him from going to prison. Romantic fluff done with intelligence and with a theme of fate and our veering into the the unknown. Score: 7 / 10
sangreturquesa . I like to say I made this just because of how disgusted I feel after watching this boring,romantic? film. I was attracted for the cast initially. The film starts kinda nice but after a while you can see some cringe teen moments and the people acting like 30 something college kids.The only reason why I gave this one two stars was BC of Reese looking so cute! Stupid,both dialogues and storyline, lame and unreal behaviors,overacted acting,unlikeable main characters etc...Even OwenWilson and Jack Nicholson were just off. My conclusion a bad film with good actors... it happens.
