Romantic comedies are all handicapped by the same thing, predictability. You know the girl will be heartbroken, turn bitterly against all men, and then slowly realize that her true love is the one she’s overlooked time and time again, and “Someone Like You” is no different…
The performance and likability of little movie star Abigail Breslin is what made this movie watchable. If this movie didn’t have her in it, I wouldn’t have thought twice about seeing it. Aside from Abigail’s performance, this was just another romantic comedy that failed to ignite any real romance…or comedy for that matter.
