I'm worried about you movie fans. If you're reading this review, you might be thinking about watching 'Alex & Emma'. If you saw it already, all hope is lost. For those who haven't seen this unromantic and unfunny rom-com yet, here are a dozen helpful hints. Yes, I've just created the exclusive Alex & Emma 12 Step Program. This is critical, so take notes!
You can...
1. set every clock in your house to the plot developments
2. gulp a shot of whiskey every time you laugh (WARNING: you won't even catch a buzz)
3. wonder what the heck happened to that talented Rob Reiner fellow
4. yell at Hudson to "just shut your annoying trap and type, dummy"
5. imagine Luke's brother Owen playing Alex because that's what Luke did
6. set your eyebrows on fire to keep yourself awake
7. make your stuffed animals kiss each other (they'll probably teach you more about passion than Alex or Emma)
8. breathe a sigh of relief because no one will actually publish the lame novel the characters co-write
9. check Hudson's IMDb page to confirm if she has indeed played this same character 287 times already (yup)
10. start writing a snarky review halfway through the movie
11. return the DVD to the video store, rent something else, and never think of spending 96 minutes with 'Alex & Emma' again
12. repeat 12 step process as necessary
