Hit – Starring Reese Witherspoon, Mark Ruffalo, Jon Heder
Landscaper David Abbott (Ruffalo) is being haunted by the spirit of the woman (Witherspoon) he is subletting from. In order to help her come to terms with her state of being, David attempts to reveal what happened to this mysterious woman.
I really enjoyed this supernatural romantic comedy. Everything about this movie made me laugh, and smile. The cast was well matched- although I didn’t particuarly enjoy Jon Heder because I feel he lacks in range- and the story was simple to follow. Mark Ruffalo continues to engage audiences with his charm, while Reese Witherspoon adds a touch of cuteness and sass to her character.
There is not much else to say about this film except it is a great date night movie. Bottom Line: Just Like Heaven is just that.
Best Scene: When David reveals to Elizabeth’s (Witherspoon) sister that he can communicate with Elizabeth’s spirit.
Rom-Com
Rated PG-13 for some sexual content.
Running time: 1 hour 35 minutes
What about the part when Ruffalo calls in the old Asian women to fight off the spirit of Witherspoon and they set of the fire alarm? I found that scene to be endearing.
This movie was pure fluff and set in San Francisco no less. Why is it so hard for singles to find meaningful love in this world without supernatural intervention?
I guess the only thing that this movie is missing is a cameo by the king of rom-com Ashton Christopher Kutcher.
