Think Like a Man (2012)


Let me take a moment to say how much I love Kevin Hart. He is a comedic mind like few others. His gift for self-deprecation is unrivaled among today's comedians, and his willingness to look like a fool is a huge credit to Tim Story's "Think Like a Man". There is also a wonderful scene-stealing performance from Gary Owen, as the married white guy of the group, who gets a few great one-liners, and is the only example of a functional relationship in the film. This is easily one of the funniest rom-coms I have seen in a while, that wasn't written by Woody Allen. The All-Star cast is undeniably charming, and bring out the hilarity of a script that is essentially a two hour commercial for Steve Harvey's dating advice book (yes, "Family Fued" Steve Harvey). See this! See it now!
