Love & Other Remedies - Review Toto

End nineties, Jamie Randall (Jake Gyllenhaal ) is a very charming libertine looking for a career as a representative of drugs. While it is committed to convince doctors to replace it with Prozac Zoloft, medicine sponsored by him, he runs with the beautiful Maggie Murdock ( Anne Hathaway), girl suffering from Parkinson's disease. The two were dragged to a report in which the only rule is: " not get serious." But although both will continue to support not wish to bind, love will begin to take off.

Starting with a beginning, a little too hectic to confuse the viewer, Edward Zwick takes a little 'to take the right path with his latest film. "Love & Other Remedies " initially seems to be focused on work and private life of the protagonist Jamie. It takes more than twenty minutes to do this (forced) to meet with Maggie and finally unlock the true story of the film. Only then, in fact, everything begins to make sense and form, helped especially by the great chemistry (noticeable from the first appointment) that the two actors manage to convey on the screen (maybe even about the sex scenes they had faced together.) If this play has the advantage of not artifact to be placed inside the numerous dull comedies of pure entertainment in this period are flocking to our rooms, is due above all to the character played the beautiful and talented Anne Hathaway . Must certainly be said that the role of Maggie is the one with more depth within the film and consequently gave the possibility to those who interpreted it to be more developed than others. But it was not so obvious that this happened as it was wonderfully thanks to the actress of "The Devil Wears Prada . Hathaway surprised everyone again with a great interpretation that perhaps it should also be above the expectations that such a film can give a performance level mainstreaming. It remains to look at, unfortunately, the poor Jake Gyllenhaal, which touches on the role of the usual stereotypical man who refuses to take responsibility and go continuously from one woman to another, so "obviously" to fall in love then.

Edward Zwick, in short, packs a comedy initially very sweet tones, but that ends in dosarsi more and more, touching on some slightly bitter. You do not leave out, but now these comedies usually do, the usual platitudes, the usual rhetorical situations and the inevitable lack credibility used to "move" the story. But overall, also due to some ideas very interesting - see the scene with Hathaway at the meeting of people with Parkinson's - the whole is left to see very nicely.

shame to have changed slightly the meaning of the original title was "Love & Other Drugs " (lit. "Love and Other Drugs ") making it "Love and Other Remedies . Although there is very much detached from the real title, this small change to the final word loses the hidden message that a movie like this would send.
