5. The Battle of the Sexes Is On


All right everyone we've made it to my top 5! These are the ones that I find to be some of the best romantic comedies. The Ugly Truth has made the cut. This hilarious duo of Katherine Heigl (Abby) and Gerard Butler (Mike) seem to make the perfect, yet unlikely, pair. 

The Ugly Truth is about a news producer named Abby, who is looking for love in all the wrong places, apparently and a guest correspondence Mike who is after lust. Mike is the correspondent on the show Abby works for and right off the bat, they don't get along all that well. Their whole views on love and lust really clash. Especially, since his whole segment, The Ugly Truth, is about the expectation of what a man is really thinking.

Although they don't get along all that well, they become semi-weird friends as Mike learns Abby has a thing for her next-door neighbor Colin (Eric Winter), the doctor. So, Mike decides to help Abby snag this guy, but she has to follow all his instructions and he's sure she'll land him.



During this little experiment, Abby and Mike grow closer and you can sense a little jealousy from Mike as Abby also becomes closer to Colin. It is really evident one night when Abby and Mike go out of town for work and things seam to heat up between them. After their passionate kiss, they return to their rooms only Abby's room has some unexpected company as Colin has come to surprise her. All of a sudden there's a knock on the door and you guessed it, it's Mike. He leaves quickly when he notices Colin and Abby runs after Mike and offers to get rid of Colin, but of course Mike said don't bother as he thinks he's no competition to the doctor.

So Abby got her doctor, and Mike gets to keep lusting after women. Now after all that's happened, did they really get what they wanted? If you don't already know you'll have to find out for yourself. I shouldn't really be giving away everything or else what's the point in watching?

The Ugly Truth is absolutely hilarious and has you laughing most of the time. It also has a very unpredictable romance, if this was a real life situation. This is an absolute must see and would be a great date movie. I think there's something for even the guys to love. Have a great day and enjoy a great movie!
