Love and Other Drugs lacks a true identity; it has the sex/nudity of a raunchy teen comedy, but the emotion/drama of a romantic dramedy. Respectable as it is, the film never finds the balance that humors, as well as touches the audience. Gyllenhaal and Hathaway are terrific, they both give solid performances. The rest of the film is really likable as well, except Josh Gad, who plays Jake Gyllenhaal's brother. The character was completely useless and irritating. Other than that, I thought this was a good film despite it not being as unique as it tried to be.

As far as romantic comedies go, this was actually fairly good - both Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway were well cast and managed to work well together. The movie did made me feel old - as it seems to early for a movie set in the 90s to feel nostalgic, but hey, what can I do? Overall, not too bad and better than I was expecting.

Jamie eventually meets Anne Hattaway's Maggie, a young artist weighed down with Parkinson's Disease. Jamie and Maggie fall in love, and Jamie wants to do everything medically possible to "cure" Maggie. Maggie eventually feels like love is not Jamie's motivation and pushes him away because she does not want to be a burden to Jamie's career.
This movie had some great scenes, funny moments, and great lines. The only problem with the whole movie is that every single actor in the …
