sherahumsoc This is an extremely light romantic comedy starring Uma Thurman, Luke Wilson and Anna Faris. I watched this almost right after watching Kill Bill, so it was a refreshing change of character for me. The movie is about G girl, a super hero who begins to obsess over her new boyfriend. The movie is from Matthew (i.e. the boyfriend)'s perspective. Although their date begins relatively smoothly (if you can call leaving in the middle of dinner to save town smooth), Jenny turns out to be slightly psychotic. She is extremely demanding and jealous, and does not give Matthew his space. Matthew ends up breaking up with her and is avenged for doing so; super girlfriend means that she is double the trouble. The plot is basically Jenny sabotaging Matthew (and his new girlfriend), and eventually the other way around, as Matthew holds hands with G girl's arch enemy to put it all to a stop. The movie is a romantic comedy, and it is just that. The story line is fairly straightforward and free from convoluted twists or thrills. It's a movie that I would call just 'all out there', and is a mediocre recommendation if you want to watch something without any strain at all. I didn't find it particularly funny or romantic, though, and the only humor point was Uma Thurman's almost neurotic, jealous rampages. The characters lacked development, and overall, the whole movie felt like an episode from any Disney channel cartoon show. The movie lacked substance, and sophistication. All in all, something you might put on television as a background soundboard while you're cooking… but it's not a movie you would spend time focusing on.

Bob An This movie is really fun! I enjoyed it throughout. Although the story is quite a cliché and you can kinda predict what will happen with the G girl and the regular girl and what will become of the couple... It does not spoil the fun.Uma was really great for the role.Luke too. He is kinda used to playing the good guys and Uma was there brilliantly playing the good and the bad one. The girl from those 'SCARY movies' was a nice adding to the cast - sorry I don't know her name.All in all, I really don't see how this movie can get one or two star rating. Yes, it is nothing spectacular, but if you are after some really light, fun and cool movie, this one is great one.I actually don't like many of those comedy / romance films, but this one is actually funny! Nine from me. It was a real fun and pleasure watching it!

tftmc07 I'll keep this short. This movie is not good. My Super Ex-Girlfriend sounds like it could have some potential, but ends up living up to none of it. The movie is just a cliché of every Romantic-Comedy that leans more towards comedy. Actresses like Uma Thurman just don't throw themselves into crap do they? (She might have done this to get out of contract or was obligated, I don't know.)It has all your typical ingredients for that genre; You have your soft spoken, semi- successful, if not weak male protagonist. Add a dash of quirky, wanna-be-womanizer best friend. Then there is your most necessary ingredient to the more "comedic" Romantic- Comedies, the independent, strong and strong character woman protagonist friend(s). Add a side of a threat to the Protagonsts' relationship, in this case, another woman, as usual that woman is a...co-worker.However I take it the writers of the movie changed the recipe a bit, skip the courting of the Male-Female and turn the Female into the antagonist! Also, give her super powers. That's really the WHOLE movie. This bland and mediocre comedy crap goes by so fast because it's predictable. Also it feels as though there is so little character development that the movie does end up movie too fast. It's roughly 90m but feels like a 30m sitcom...on cable.It also feels like a sitcom because there's a lot of ads in the middle, at some points during the movie I was seriously contemplating the idea that this movie was literally made only for Product Placement! It's downright pathetic. The acting isn't actually bad though, even Uma Thurman's character, however poorly developed and shallow is acted as well as it possibly could. Nothing that stands out though, except Eddie Izzard's HORRIBLE "American Accent." He can't do it, period. He must have had trouble doing the accent, as the British accent pops in & out randomly during his few lines.So let me just bluntly say a few words to describe this movie. Corny, fast paced, empty, hollow, shallow and mediocre. Cheap, predictable, cliché and advertisement. I recognize those people. The movie is over already? I'll never get those two hours back.

Jennifer Amey (smartygirl) I had some vague memories of hearing that this film was better than you'd think from the title, so when my husband cued it up, I thought sure, I could use a laugh.The dialogue was cringingly awkward. There's nothing worse than uber-phony awkward-it's-our-first-date-and-I-said-'sex'-five-times-ha-ha dialogue. And there's nothing funny about it. My husband predicted just about every dumb line and dumb scene before the actors stumbled half-heartedly through them. "Oh hi, I work at an art gallery where we have awkwardly sexual statues, wanna come see?" We sat there stunned, my husband said "How did this get green-lit?" Awful. The sex scenes - one dumb joke, poorly played. One would think neither Thurman nor Wilson has had sex before in their lives, although I'm pretty sure that's not the case.Now, I will admit we fast-forwarded through a lot of it because we just couldn't stand it. But the ending? The ending?! Made me livid.The big finale has G-Girl reconcile with her arch-nemesis, Bedlam, who has spent years trying to kill her, in his job as the Evil Villain. So, they hook up. Seriously, being an obsessive psycho who keeps a shrine to a girl in his bedroom is considered "romantic" by whom? Was that supposed to be satire that totally misfired by being completely unfunny? Because no, a woman should not run to the arms of a man that tried repeatedly to kill her. And the excuse that he only tried to kill her because he loves her? Yeah, I've known people in relationships like that. And the guy belongs in jail. I had been willing to overlook the whole even-a-woman-with-superpowers-is-hopeless-without-a-man plot to this film until that point, but that put it over the edge. Shame on everyone involved in this piece of garbage. Blecch.Question: were they trying to make a "so bad it's good" sleeper hit? Because, they failed at that too. Ugh.
