Katherine Heigl (Knocked up and 27 Dresses) is quickly becoming the queen of the modern day romantic comedy. in this film she teams up with Gerard Butler (300 and P.S. I love you). Heigl is the producer of a morning news program in Sacramento and Butler is the host of "the Ugly Truth" a brash talk show that looks at the state of relationships. Due to falling ratings the AM News Program hires Butler to do his Ugly Truth show on there morning program with Heigl as the producer. One thing leads to another and you have another romantic comedy that is at times funny, corny and with a lot of bickering between the two. Perhaps not the most original movie but it does have its moments and it is entertaining. Anyone who enjoys a good romantic comedy will enjoy this dvd and especially those who are fans of Heigl. Go ahead and get this one, it is worth the price.Read full review
I bought this DVD for one reason and one reason alone: Gerry Butler. His appearance in a film makes it worth the DVD's MSRP. As for his vapid, charmless co-star here (whose name happily escapes me), I can either take or leave her alone -- preferably the latter. Same will likely be true (sooner than later) for the rest of the American DVD-buying public as well. Oh, yes: Katherine Heigel, is it? Well, no matter. The film, for me, is about seeing Gerry. Is "The Ugly Truth" his best film to date? No, but does this concern me greatly? Also no. Mr. Butler remains a completely charming, funny, occasionally dark, but always deeply interesting actor. For better examples of this, catch his stellar performances in "Phantom Of The Opera," "Dear Frankie," "One More Kiss," and "P.S.: I Love You." He's truly marvelous. Commercial over; thank you.Read full review
Entertaining - what I liked best about this movie was that the two main characters were not mean spirited to each other. I can never understand so-called "love" stories where it's hate, hate, hate and then, miraculously the two fall into each other's arms at the end of the movie. This was cute, dialogue was snappy (and way more to the point about sex than I am used to - shows that I am getting older), but never quite crosses the line into true vulgarity. Everyone I know who has seen it has liked it, and I did as well.
I personally love this movie. It's funny, entertaining does not get old. It was delivered at a decent time, good quality, well packed and loved the price :) completely worth it.
