Review:
Katherine Heigl once complained that Judd Apatow’s Knocked
Up, in which she starred, was way too guy-centric and made the
women humorless shrews. Heigl owes Apatow an apology
(Click here to watch Peter Travers’ video review of The Ugly
Truth). The Ugly Truth, Heigl’s new romcom, is
the real sexist swill. There’s not a genuine laugh in it, unless
you think vibrating underwear is hoot material. As Abby Richter,
the producer of a morning TV chatfest in Sacramento, Heigl
practically defines humorless shrew. To up ratings for her show,
Abby is forced to bring on shock jock Mike Chadway (300
star Gerard Butler, minus the sandals and the good jokes). Mike
lays on the verbal testosterone, even giving Abby hints on how to
get laid, which this alleged comedy believes is all women
really…
