The Ugly Truth

You know, when you set out to try and figure out the opposite sex…the ugly truth is what you face.

The movie is a beautiful mix of reality and fiction. I loved it. I liked the humor which according to some is a bit too explicit. But then again let’s be mature and enjoy it.

The movie has a cool urban setting. A TV show producer finds herself struggling with the obnoxious and arrogant Gerard Butler. The movie revolves around how both of them tackle with their differences and how they ultimately fall in love –very common theme for a romantic comedy.

The high point of the movie is undoubtedly the humor. It’s fast and very witty. This is one movie which actually shows that men do run away from a situation. There is a woman standing in front of you and giving hints (not even subtle ones) and all he chooses to do is to run away from the situation.

Well, this piece is not a review of the movie. It’s about how I could relate so well to the movie.

Sometimes we just hold back emotions as we fear that they might not be caught well with the other person. Sometimes we just don’t want to speak out our heart and say things. The reasons are so many. Sometimes we just want destiny to work around and make things happen for us. Sometimes we leave everything to that destiny. But my point is…till how long do we leave it. Till how long do we not act?

I wish at the end of two hours like in a movie…I could have my answers. L
