LOVE HAPPENS (B-)

Starring: Aaron Eckhart and Jennifer Aniston

Story: Dr. Burke Ryan is on the precipice of a major multimedia deal, but the therapist who asks his patients to openly confront their pain is secretly unable to take his own advice. Eloise Chandler has sworn off men and decided to focus on her floral business. However, when she meets Burke at the hotel where he's speaking, there is an instant attraction. But will two people who have met the right person at exactly the wrong time be able to give love another chance? As each struggles with the hurt of love and loss, they realize that in order to move forward, they need to let go of the past. And if they can, they'll find that, sometimes, love happens when you least expect it. (Universal Studios)

Rated: PG-13

Bottom Line: Hey look, its Jennifer Aniston playing the same role she’s played in 11 other films! Don’t let the TV commercials fool you in to thinking this is an Aniston-driven romantic comedy - when it’s actually Aaron Eckhart’s non-groundbreaking story of romance and drama that’s saved by smart writing and a few interesting turns.
