Jeanie and I both really enjoyed Little Black Book...
While it is billed as a romantic comedy, and though it is both funny and romantic, it is not your typical romantic comedy - the movie actually has some deeper themes, and a darker undercurrent. It makes for both an enjoyable and thought provoking experience. I would NOT suggest this as a "date movie," or a movie to rent if you just want to snuggle and feel mushy after an hour and a half.
One scene now ranks as one of my personal funniest of all times. I laughed so hard and so long that I made myself wheeze.
If you like Carly Simon's music, the movie is worth watching just for the score.
As usual, I am avoiding providing a general review and will leave that to the experts. I was somewhat surprised at the overall low rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and I think some of the reviews provide too much information (spoilers), but if you want other opinions, I still think RT is a good place to get a fairly unbiased, broad perspective on a flick.
