First things first. Do Gerard Butler and Jennifer Aniston set the screen on fire with their chemistry? Nope, they don't. Not like Eva Mendes and Will Smith did in Tennant's earlier rom-com, Hitch. Aniston keeps raising her eyebrows and Butler wears a sardonic sneer on his lips amidst the constant sparring that happens between the two. This does make you laugh, now and then, but it doesn't really raise the mercury to boiling point.
So, settle down for a temperate, time-pass comedy as the odd couple discover that its the oddity (read mismatch) that is essentially the highpoint of their relationship. And divorce hasn't managed to dull the ardour, despite the apparent negative vibes between them. Of course, it takes long car rides, where Jennifer must spend most of her time either in the trunk or in handcuffs, and a visit to their honeymoon hotel to make them realise this simple truth. Not forgetting a brush with corrupt cops, shooters and gunmen....Aniston's an investigative reporter, you see, chasing some hot story in high-heels. Doesn't take long for Butler to become her assistant on the beat.
Funny in places, feisty here and there, The Bounty Hunter, is one more middle-of-the-road outing from Jennifer Aniston.
