It's a job, it isn't personal. Well, maybe a little...
The Bounty Hunter (2010) is an action-romantic comedy starring Gerard Butler as Milo Boyd, a bounty hunter and Jennifer Aniston as Nicole Hurley, a news reporter.
Gerard Butler: Milo Boyd, ex-detective, ex-husband, bounty hunter, and possessing a sarcastic sense of humor that drives his ex-wife mad.
Jennifer Aniston: Nicole Hurley, ex-wife, news reporter working on a murder cover-up, strong, and independent.
One common trait: They dated for 6 months, wedded for 9 months and still, they're always at at odds in almost everything.
The plot is very simple: Nicole jumps bail, Milo is paid to catch her, both fight along the way and almost get themselves killed by one of the bad guys. Then, after much sweat, trouble, and adventure, both confess their feelings for each other. The end.
The most memorable quote from the movie: That's true love. Two people who know all each other's faults and weaknesses and they just love each other all the more.
Well, most rom-coms have happy endings. So does The Bounty Hunter. Most importantly, I always appreciate lessons about relationship from rom-coms. From The Bounty Hunter, I see that marriage requires maturity to deal with every single thing you do with your spouse, especially the willingness to admit your mistakes, no matter how hard it is for you to utter, "I'm sorry."
It's kinda refreshing to watch Jennifer Aniston on the big screen again. Her last movie that I watched was Marley & Me. She's a tough woman. Check out some of her memorable quotes (not from The Bounty Hunter).
- The best smell in the world is that man that you love.
- There are no regrets in life, just lessons.
- I love that feeling of being in love, the effect of having butterflies when you wake up in the morning. That is special.
- The greater your capacity to love, the greater your capacity to feel the pain.
- I always say don't make plans, make options.
- Once you figure out who you are and what you love about yourself, I think it all kinda falls into place.
