Skip it. 'Love & Other Drugs' is a paint-by-numbers romantic comedy that mistakes quirky banter for chemistry and glossy production values for substance. Unless you're desperate for some vanilla romance with Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway going through the motions, your time is better spent elsewhere.
Plot
Maggie is an alluring free spirit who won't let anyone – or anything – tie her down. But she meets her match in Jamie, whose relentless and nearly infallible charm serves him well with the ladies and the cutthroat world of pharmaceutical sales. Maggie and Jamie's evolving relationship takes them both by surprise, as they find themselves under the influence of the ultimate drug: love.
