Add one more mark to the tally of movies in which Keanu Reeves didn't suck. (Would that make it three?) He turns in quite a respectable performance in Something's Gotta Give. And that's in the middle of a stellar cast. Diane Keaton was the really outstanding one (and beautiful!), Frances McDormand and Amanda Peet were great support, and Jack Nicholson was of course very funny.

It was really the acting that carried the movie, too... the plotting was a little odd, or shaky, or something, and the writing had some great moments but was mostly just fair. The cast added the extra twist that bumped it up from being a mediocre movie to being a good movie. There are a few over-the-top moments, and some people will be weirded out by the age thing, but I thoroughly enjoyed it, and recommend it.
