Title: A Case of You
Starring:
Justin Long
Evan Rachel Wood
A guy meets his unrequited love in a coffee shop.
As is the standard operating procedure of guys such as he, he decides that the best way to banish the un from the requited is not to actually talk to the woman and proceed to woo her with his charm, wit and potential, but to stalk her via Facebook and pretend to be her perfect man based on her likes etc.
Great plan, huh?
So of course, we sit through the next 60 or so minutes, watching this moron essentially stalk a woman, and dupe her into falling in love with “him”.
Once this happens, he realises his mistake and instead of attempting to fix it, he turns into a total dick and somehow finds a path to attack her integrity.
She of course, is devastated by his behaviour, and he leaves, never to cross paths again (Right… We were always going to fall for that one!).
This man with the emotional intelligence of a potato is then guided gently to the conclusion that she is his last chance for redemption, and if she disappears, he is destined to live a life of loneliness.
You know where this is going, don’t you?
He runs through the streets to confront her in front of a group of relative strangers, to confess all and declare his love for her.
Turns out she knew of his dastardly plan, and played the game, pretending to like things she actually hated, in order to get him to like things he actually hated too, so they could both like things they used to hate to like… Or something like that.
So…
She takes him back, because let’s face it, the pair of them are really nothing but a couple of manipulating pricks and they’ll live happily ever after anyway.
Half a gerbil.
Stupid *&%#$ movie.
