The Ugly Truth

I was originally under the impression that the Ugly Truth was a full blown chick flick. However, the somewhat offensive and perverted insights of Mike Chadway, played by Girard Butler, are more than enough to keep any man interested. Abby, played by Katherine Heigl, is the producer of a family style news channel, that is until horrible ratings forced her boss to hire some new talent. The talent came in the form of Mike, the star of a show called the Ugly Truth that explains what men are really looking for in women and relationships. Abby clearly can not stand working with Mike, so he strikes up a deal in order to win her over. Mike agrees that if his tactics can't score Abby her dream date then he will quit and she will never have to work with him again. Little does Abby know that just when she wins over the man of her dreams, she will end up falling in love with someone she would have never imagined. I give the Ugly Truth 3 thumbs up for its ability to keep both males and females entertained and laughing.
