As upscale sitcoms go, Something's Gotta Give has more to offer than most romantic comedies. Obviously working through some semi-autobiographical issues regarding 'women of a certain age,' writer-director Nancy Meyers brings adequate credibility and above-average intelligence to what is essentially (but not exclusively) a fantasy premise, in which an aging lothario who's always dated younger women (Jack Nicholson, more or less playing himself) falls for a successful middle-aged playwright (Diane Keaton) who's convinced she's past the age of romance, much less sexual re-awakening. As long as old pals Nicholson and Keaton are on screen discussing their dilemma or discovering their mutual desire, Something's Gotta Give is terrific, proving (in case anyone had forgotten) that Hollywood can and should aim for an older demographic. Myers falls short with the sitcom device of a younger lover (Keanu Reeves) who wants Keaton as much as Nicholson does; it's believable but shallow and too easily dismissed. Myers also skimps on supporting roles for Frances McDormand, Amanda Peet, and Jon Favreau, but thankfully this is one romantic comedy that doesn't pander to youth. Mature viewers, rejoice! --Jeff Shannon

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Very funny
Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson have perfect chemistry together.It is one of the funniest flicks I've watched in a long time.
Rating: - One For The Pros
To quote John Mellencamp, this "little ditty `bout Jack and Diane" called "Something's Gotta Give" is somewhat of a sleeper comedy nowadays but still managed to give Diane Keaton a Golden Globe for Best Actress (as well as an Academy Award nomination) in 2004. Co-star Jack Nicholson was nominated for a Golden Globe as well for his performance and these are two of the best reasons to watch the film.
Keaton is Erica Barry, a divorcee and accomplished playwright who decides to spend ... Read More
Rating:  - Jack Nicholson is not my idea of a ladies' man.
Nothing about this movie made sense to me. The "hero" is supposed to be crawling with young women, and won't go with anybody over thirty years of age. How could he get anyone under thirty to even look at him? For that matter, how could he get anyone OVER thirty to look at him? His greasy hair was unkempt and looked dirty. He was fat and sloppy, and so out of shape he wheezed when he walked from one room to another. But most of all, he was immature and superficial. I can see younger women falling ... Read More
Rating: - didn't "give" me anything
I saw this movie has 4 1/2 stars. How? This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen in my life! I bought it as a Christmas present for my boyfriend's mother. I watched it first, and after watching it, I couldn't even give it to her. It would have been an insult. Like "here is your crappy gift. this is how much i think of you." I was talking about it to a co worker just describing this terrible movie I had seen and without even saying the title, she said "you talking about Something's Gotta Give?" ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent Film
If you like chick flicks and traveling I recommend that you see this movie.It's simply an excellent film if that's what your into.
