Rating:  - Did they have to put Kevin Smith in it?
He adds nothing to the movie except his sick jokes and terrible non existent acting. And Jennifer regretfully plays an airhead role, she is starting to turn into an Angelina Joile, and we don't want anymore trash in Hollywood, try Washington DC.
Rating: - Entirely forgettable -- should have been a Lifetime movie
"Catch & Release," starring Jennifer Garner, was an entirely forgettable film, much better done for TV as a Lifetime movie.
What happens when you find out the person you were set to marry turns out to be entirely a different person, with an unsavory past life? And then dies on the day before the wedding? And you live in a shared craftsman bungalow in Boulder with his two other best friends? And they all know he had a kid but never bothered to tell you? And then the flakey blonde woman and son show up in Boulder? And you have some treacly-sweet bonding moments with all the guys and the ditz? And your fiance had a lot more money than you were aware of? And his mom want the family heirloom engagement ring back? And the DNA proves the boy is not really his son? And you unwittingly fall in love with his LA-ish best friend? And because of an overheard misunderstanding he returns to LA in a snit? And one of the roommates falls in love with the blonde flake and her son? And then you decide to go to LA to reunite with the best friend? And you find him on the beach, playing catch with his dog? And you lock lips and he asks what took you so long?
Do you need to watch this movie to find out? I don't think so.
Rating: - Good background noise for a nap...
I don't even know where to begin. This movie starts slow...and just gets slower. There's very little character development, despite that being the one of the main (implied) themes of the movie. The acting isn't great and the script was lousy. Since I'm one of those people who always tries to find something nice to say, I'll mention that I loved the house. The layout was open and beautiful but it didn't really fit the mood of the movie. Garner's "trapped-in-my-mind/trapped-in-the-situation" attitude with the situations in the movie really didn't fit with the home she was staying in.
There needed to be more action (vs. boring dialouge) in this movie. There are too many twists and turns and only a vague storyline. If you absolutely ~have~ to see this movie, borrow it, rent it, but whatever you do, ~*~don't~*~ buy it. You'll only be able to stomach the monotony once (if you're lucky).
Rating:  - A great movie....
I loved the movie catch and release. Many people did not like how it ended, but I thought the ending was perfect. This is definitely a must see!
Rating: - 1 Star is Still Too HIgh a Rating
While Garner spends most of her time protruding her lips as much as possible to show everyone how pouty her lips are (clearly a pathetic attempt by her director to make she-of-hard-angular-face appear soft), Kevin Smith is sickening us with his disgusting eating scenes and frankly, his entire being.
This movie is plain stupid and laughable and not worth another moment of my thought. The makers of this "romantic comedy" should be sued for false advertising.
