My Super Ex-Girlfriend

Last night I watched this romantic cheeky comedy with my friend in Gurney Plaza. This is a tale of a guy who’s a psycho-chick magnet hooking up with a somewhat deranged super-femme fatale. It dots all the Is and crosses all the Ts, and everyone seems to be having fun, but something is missing; or rather, too much is put in.

The titular heroine, G-Girl (Uma Thurman), is such a do-gooder that the neuroses and borderline insanity of her alliterative alter-ego Jenny Johnson are almost too hard to take. Maybe it would have taken too long to paint her as your standard uber-being driven apart from humanity (and men) by her vast powers. As it stands, things get too wild with this super-crazy lady and they … they’re resolved far too conveniently.

Inconsistencies aside, Thurman is a joy to watch as are Luke Wilson as the harassed loverboy; The office’s Rainn Wilson as his best buddy and Anna Faris as the sweetie from the office. As ultra-romances go, it’s a darn sight livelier than the staid, overly reverent Superman Returns.
