That said, theres enough white hot testosterone and Amazonian estrogen to satisfy Camerons sci fi fanboy base and then some.

The film does have a tired Hugh Grant and a washed out Sarah Jessica Parker trying to be funny.

I grant you Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker evoke charm in the right screenplay. This is the wrong screenplay.

There isnt too much in the plot thats aggressively stupid, it produces a few chuckles here and there, and the cast is likable.

Lawrences direction is even blander than most of these assembly line movies.

This one plods from sentence to sentence.Grant and Parker stand around as if theyre waiting for someone to yell, Cut.

And yet, and yet in a silly way, it is entertaining, the mismatch is actually weirdly plausible, and try as I might, I couldnt be grumpy about it.

Neither good nor bad. Scales dizzying new heights of okay. Aims for mediocrity... and nails it.

(Columbia/Sony) Sometimes thankfully, rarely a movie comes along that is so appallingly awful that you genuinely wonder how it got made.
Susang Ranger

This stereotypical, overly predictable tale about neurotic, type A Manhattanites stuck in sleepy Wyoming is simply soporific and annoying.
Common Sense Media

Sometimes its unpleasant, sometimes its insincere, and for long stretches its boring.

As well worn farce, Morgans is pretty much The Proposal with a dash of Witness.
