The first thing that caught my eye when sitting through this movie's opening credits? The film was produced by Hilary Swank, Oscar-winner Hilary Swank. Anyway: I'm not going to lie, I read this movie's literary counterpart (by Emily Giffin) last summer and enjoyed it a little bit — it was nice, light reading. Much like the novel, I can't say that I'm proud of liking this movie for what it is ... but that's how I feel. Surprisingly, Kate Hudson did a lovely job as honest, loud-mouthed, alcoholic, stuck-up Darcy and, unsurprisingly, Ginnifer Goodwin was perfect as pushover Rachel. The true stand-out in this flick, however, was best friend and confidant Ethan, played by John Krasinski (TV's The Office). Something Borrowed deals with some serious relationship issues and doesn't quite develop all of its characters enough to warrant forgiveness for their actions (especially compared to the book), but it is a romantic comedy and it does satisfy its genre to a tee.Best on-screen moment: Pretty much anytime Ethan attempts to get away from Clare (Ashley Williams) — or tell her a new lie.
