Did you know

- GoofsMilo says the stun gun shocked him at 250 volts, which is too weak to shock him unconscious. Stun gun charges are over 10000 volts.
- Quotes
[calling Milo from inside his car's trunk]
Nicole Hurley: Milo, please, you have got to let me out of here.
Milo Boyd: Hmm... nope!
Nicole Hurley: All right, I shouldn't have run away, you just caught me off guard. And the truth is, I think I might need your advice on something.
Milo Boyd: Well, that's a real shame. Because I wouldn't help you if you were the last baby sea turtle dragging your little, tiny body across the burning sand whilst hungry seagulls circled overhead. No, I'd just pull up a chair, sip a pina colada and watch nature take its course.

A chick flick with nothing unique or special one has seen such films countless times before and will continue to see them in future the only thing I can say in its praise is that it's better than the story less chick flicks bollywood seems to be churning out nowadays Gerard Butler is an ex cop bounty hunter whose ex wife is a hot shot reporter who is suspicious about an open and shut case she starts to investigate a lead and hence doesn't turn up in court for her parking tickets' hearing the court is sick of waiting for Ms. Jennifer and puts out a warrant for her arrest a bounty hunter is employed to get her and he happens to be Mr. Butler he arrests her without delay but now starts a sort of road movie with the 'killer' out to get Ms. Aniston the bounty hunter turns saviour as the ex-couple sets out to find what the hell is happening and in the process re-discover their love.
The film could have been funny and romantic and dramatic but it seems insipid its like taking your girlfriend out and treating her to Maggi noodles you expect so much but all you gets is something limp and soggy but not bad to taste
Gerard was way better in The Ugly Truth. He's one action hero who is comfortable in chick flicks as well he's not camera shy and hence very comfortable on screen in whatever he's doing unlike Aniston who seems too heavily decked up and restrained and beautiful and pleasant looking clearly she looks like she is acting not natural at all she should try and be like what she was in Friends and stop producing the strange films she does with herself in them and herself in every frame (Management 2008 – a very dull film that makes Indian chick flicks look classic and super funny in comparison)
The one funny guy in the movie was Aniston's colleague who kissed her once and is under the impression that she is having an affair with her. If only he had more to do in this movie instead of just being a cut way from the lead couple
I'm sure in a few days from now I might not remember any scene or character from this film
