James N It's a phile but needs one more critic to dislike it to become cinephobe eligible Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/11/23 Full Review Joe T Only negative ..Paul Rudd's character is annoying. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/13/23 Full Review Steve D Road Trip with a much better cast and somehow not one drop better. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member You would think How Do You Know would be a more memorable movie. With Paul Rudd and Reese Witherspoon. Due to being from the director of As Good As It Gets. As well as also featuring Jack Nicholson. No though, this cheesy yet cute comedy is much better. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked watching this but also at the same time knew it wasn’t a great movie 2.2 Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/21/20 Full Review tiffany16 w The plot is okay. Witherspoon and Rudd have good chemistry. That alone made it a good movie. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
