My comments are at the very end.
"The saddest thing about this film, coming on the heels of the deplorable Bride Wars, is it continues the trend of supposed chick flicks that treat women as complete morons. Ladies, you're better than this. Way better."
Detroit News
"The "star-studded" cast seems to have been selected according to their Premiere power ranking and/or desperation for exposure. " Film Threat
"Scratch the surface, and the movie's underpinnings are an insult to women everywhere -- the film is slick stupid propaganda for the myth of The One True Love that wastes the talents of fine actresses."
"It looks harmless enough, this chick flick about attraction, rejection and commitment, but if you look closer, you might be irritated to discover women are portrayed as brainless, man-crazy twits unable to think straight when it comes to the mating game"
"Cheating, trying to get laid, and attempting to wrangle the opposite sex into marriage or something quite like it, never seemed so dull."
"Overstays its welcome and often feels contrived and overstuffed with neurotic, whinny and annoying characters who need a lot of therapy."
"Are women desperate or just desperately stupid? This is the misogynist question at the core of He's Just Not That Into You, a women-bashing tract disguised as a chick flick." Rolling Stone
"The women are so unappealing, for the most part, that this may be the first movie in a long time where many viewers will leave the theater wishing that there had been more Ben Affleck."
"An unendurable relationship-romcom, which you should avoid the way you would a glass of punch with a frothy gob of Anthrax floating on the surface."
"Is this what we want in our romantic comedies? Is it too much to hope for smart, dimensional female characters who have more to them than marriage lust (see also -- or rather, don't -- Bride Wars)?"
"The movie makes it seem worthwhile, even noble, to wait around for cads to change their ways. No doubt the film's happy endings will only perpetuate more delusion and heartbreak."
"This plodding, overlong film is like an awkward first date with an attractive setup whose heart isn't in it: polite, dull and seemingly unending."
"The problem with most of the film's women is that they are interested in only (a) the opposite sex, (b) dating and (c) marriage."
"The movie plays like Love Actually with half the brains and none of the nerve."
"What’s depressing about this movie and others like it is the low bar it sets for both modern women and the movies that seek to represent them"
"A tediously uninvolving ensemble mating-go-round that shuffles together a group of boring Baltimore characters in what's supposed to be--but isn't--an effervescent romantic roundelay."
"The cretinous script is in no hurry to explain how this anguish will be resolved. The result is a masterclass in Method dullness."
"He's Just Not That Into You turns romantic sanity into something so sanitized that it starts to make delusion look good."
"The film is a gelatinous mess of tones and characters aching to solidify, only to find the chilly reality of dating and marriage perhaps too isolating to candidly confront."
"A muddled he-said-she-said yarn that, even in this supposedly enlightened age, manages to reduce most of its characters (male and female) to the most base stereotypes."
"After more than two hours, what we're left with feels like a Robert Altman movie on Botox. It has some real substance and heft, but it also might be a bit too glossy"
"There's not much here for men, or for that matter, women who understand that the complexity of human relationships doesn't reduce to catchphrases."
