Rating: 7
Genre: Romantic Comedy
This movie starred Simon Pegg (from Hot Fuzz & Shaun of the Dead) and Thandie Newton (Crash & Pursuit of Happyness). It's a comedy about a guy who is afraid of commitment but when he finds out his ex-fiance (and his son's mom) is dating another man, he decides to prove himself by running a marathon.
The movie had some very funny parts and, although it ends predictably, is one of the better romantic comedies I've seen in a while.
If you liked Hot Fuzz or Shaun of the Dead, don't expect the same kind of movie. Some British humor to be sure but this one is more of a 'date' movie than those were. Not recommended for kidos.
On a side note, this movie was directed by David Schwimmer (of Friends fame) - he makes a much better director than an actor!
