Catch and Release
The Movie Man - wrote on 05/23/09
Catch and Release is a decent romantic comedy if you will... that deals with a sad subject, but doesn't seem to care much that it happened. The film is well directed and decently written. it benefits most from two appealing performances by two underrated talents in Jennifer Garner and Timothy Olyphant, who have wonderful chemistry together. Kevin Smith is okay and delivers some funny scenes while Juliette Lewis is wasted. The movie is sweet-natured and means well, but it's slow and wears out it's welcome by going overlong.
