> 24 hourSomething borrowed? Ones virginity or marriage partner isnt something that can be borrowed and Im shocked that this was the movie my sister or other family member chose when other movies are worth your time

> 24 hourLoved the books...movie was ok. Like all other books that turn into movies key parts were eliminated, I get they have time restrictions but some really shouldve been kept in and the unnecessary taken out

> 24 hourSomething borrowed was a terrific film, I put off watching it for weeks because it did not look promising but I was shockingly overjoyed, and most satisfied with the film. For some reason I could not stop laughing at John Krasinski. He should definitely win an award for best supporting actor. Everytime he got any on screen laughter would just bubble out from me not stop!. Kate hudson as always is a rare gem like her mother Goldie Hawn. And kate is one of my favorite actresses. I could not get over how dazzling Ginnifer goodwin was. I feel that this was a break-out performance that could mold her already established movie career into super stardom! I never knew how beautifl and sparkling gorgeous that young lady is! I saw a lot of bad reviews for this cinematic adventure but most of them may have forgot this was a romantic comedy and that;s exactly what it did; it was a story of a romance briefly borrowing a love relationship among best friends with a family pack-size helping of laughter and humor to go with it! I dont buy any movies at all, but this one goes on the shelf! Colin egglesfield played a good leading role as the somewhat shy sensible, smart, and practical one who does learn to follow the path to burning embers of heart-filled love on his own path to life. Steve howey is brilliant in the ghoulish funny guy he brings to life as Ginnifer goodwin put it take something gross or perverse and make it charming. I want to say I gave this movie 5 stars because the cast, crew and directors earned it, not because i was laughing the whole time, was not bored but instead interested in the storyline so much to be laughing one minute, and crying either tears of joy or emotions of despair the next. It also was not the fact that the 2 leading ladies are so fabulously brilliant , gorgeous, and at the top of their game as female actors but because the movie flows smoothly without any awkardness revealing a love tale of 2 fresh college students who find their way into each others hearts by friendship and also real love but get sidetracked by others who dont wait for life to happen. Its a story that fate will again join soulmates that we all may have a happy ending! Thanks and Godbless

> 24 hourI LOVE this movie, and have watched it at least 30 times. I never get tired of it. I love the music in it, too. This movie has a lot of depth to it. Something borrowed is what the BRIDE wears at her wedding, and is to be RETURNED. So, Darcy shamelessly snatched Dex away from shy Rachel, too insecure to speak up for herself. The TRUE LOVE in this movie is between Dex and Rachel, and was there all the time. It came out when Rachel revealed to Dex her secret crush on him in law school. Did you see the anger in Dex in the taxi when he realized what he had missed out on? Both their passion in the taxi was 6 years worth of pent-up love and desire. I dont pass judgment on what they did together. I didnt find Darcy a sympathetic character at all. She was shallow and self-centered. She had an affair with Marcus and got pregnant, while still engaged to Dex. Why should Rachel want to give up the deep closeness she and Dex had in exchange for Ethan: Gee, I like you. Its not love, but it kinda feels like love. I guess I miss you. Youre like home to me. They grew up together since childhood. They were close friends and thats all theyd ever be. That would not be a marriage of two souls. The love between Dex and Rachel has survived 6 years of separation. THATS what love is. Dex was under the domineering thumb of his dad all his life, no wonder it was impossible for him to stand up to him. He wanted to be a teacher, but his dad said No, youre going to be a lawyer. His mother suffered from chronic depression because her husband was so domineering and unloving (he skipped out on her when she needed him the most). And Darcy telling Dexs dad shell have as many children as he wants her to have was disgusting! Shes stealing Dexs manhood. Dex is not even being allowed to decide how many children HE wants to have. Finally, Rachel gets the strength (thanks to Ethan) to stand up to Dex and tell him to cancel the wedding, and that gives Dex the backbone to do the same to his father. He doesnt want to marry Darcy, but his Dad tries to force him into it because [breaking up with Darcy] thats not the kind of people we are. Its all about narcissistic image, he doesnt care about his son or love him or his poor mousy wife. How appropriate that in the end, pregnant, unmarried and no future, Darcy is chasing Ethan down a street in London -- the man she thought so little of and called him a s---head. She needed a husband, and she blew it. She gave up a 2 million dollar house for Marcus with no job, smoking pot, rescuing chipmunks, and riding a skateboard! Thats all the future Darcy had. She got what she deserved.

The Name
> 24 hourRachel is a girl who never does anything for herself, when she met a guy name Dex in college she missed out on a relationship that was there. A foundation she pushed away from lack of confidence and being submissive toward her more outgoing friend. Years later her best friend Darcy is getting married to the guy, they apparently went and done everything together even going after the same guy; their childhood friend Ethan. On a fateful night it’s revealed to Dex by a drunk Rachel of her crush spiraling them into a place no one can come back from, cheating. This movie will require a lot of ignoring the obvious fact that everyone is a horrible person; From Darcy taking Rachel obvious crush Dex, to Darcy cheating with Marcus (Friend of Dex, not sure.) on the July Fourth from lack of sex. Ethan is the only one who isn’t a bad person as he tried his best to tell a aggressive girl he wasn’t interested but ignored him; turned out he felt something for Rachel but watch her fall in love with someone else. Darcy cheating felt like a easy get out situation free card and expected some sort of consequence for their actions but none. The ending after everything just didn’t make sense and Ethan confession was pointless. What can be said is don’t be Rachel who backed down from what she really wanted. Don’t wait like Ethan to confess and respect that he didn’t just accept the girl who kept ignoring him not wanting anything with her. That being Claire. Everybody don’t be Claire who went to hard, the only thing correct is her going for what she wanted even if failure just tone it down and accept the rejection. All of this could of been of avoided but sometimes life is like that. It’s chaotic in nature, people often will ponder their decision and regret. Think about the what if’s. Those moments that hit you at random, know that’s why, don’t let the one who make your heart beat; who fill the emptiness with warmth and endless love walk away. Don’t give up.
