'The Bounty Hunter' a piece of harmless candyfloss

Director: Andy Tennant

Cast: Gerard Butler, Jennifer Aniston, Christine Baranski

A fluffy rom-com that won’t get your gray cells in a tizzy, the sort of film Hollywood knocks out on a regular, entertainingly undemanding basis with a couple of terrifically good-looking stars as eye candy.

Here Butler plays the titled bounty hunter who must take his journalist ex, Aniston, to jail. It hardly matters what for since the journey is what the film is all about … and it’s exactly the sort of journey we expect, full of mishaps, misunderstandings, witty banter and, of course, hugs and kisses.

Candyfloss it certainly is, but what’s wrong with candyfloss once in a while?

Star Rating: 3/5
