It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

I love most of Jen's movies. With a few misfits like ''Friends with Money'' and ''Derailed''. I wanted for this movie not to fall in that category but it did. As a huge Jennifer Aniston fan I think all her performances are amazing, she keeps acting good and steels always the spotlight. To begin with the movie was hard to get sucked into. The first 25 minuets was a whole different ( boring ) movie then the rest. Steve Zahn acts like hes mentally unstable and Jennifer Aniston is just a straight ass bitch. Speaking of Ass, shes a women with no self-respect and lets a man she doesn't know and shows up at her door for a few times touch her ass, FOR SEVERAL SECONDS! Then she points at the door. She gets in a car and gets out again to have sex, oke make up your mind! Then she rans off again to go to her home town which means Zahn is left behind. Thats when the movie gets a bit better. Zahn travels across country to see her, over and over again. Until Jennifer gets knocked up and marries a ex- drug abuser ( WHUT? ) Zahn is turning his life up-side down after visiting a Monk and turns the motel into a home-less centre, he shows up at Jens door again and BAM she is divorced from the ex-drug and everything is oke. Al toghter, it was pretty lame but again you feel sorry for Zahn and you really get how he feels. I didn't know what to rate this movie, it was weird, fun, good, bad, sucky, lame, sad and fun actually...So I gave it a 6(sorry for my grammar, I'm dutch )

OK, so thinking this would be a funny rom com it turned out to be a little more boring than what I expected, slow moving as I watched the movie as harmless as it was I couldn't help but think to myself if I turn this movie off right now I really wouldn't care and it wouldn't affect me. Therefore, this goes to show that the movie lacked drive and passion, it didn't upset me, it didn't enlighten me, therefore it did very little for me, It was OK but an hour and a half of OK is not good enough, I wouldn't bother if I were you as it is more miss than hit and its just one of those films that is instantly forgettable really. Aniston was the best thing about this movie as she is typecast for this role but if you liker her work its nothing that you haven't seen before, pretty singleton, sweet and lost in love you know the drill by now.

"Management" is a cute indie film revolving around a budding romance forged between an uptight city worker (Jennifer Aniston) and a small town hotel handyman (Steve Zahn). She's your standard office-junkie, putting too much time into "helping other people" and "failing to put her needs first", whilst he's an immature man-kid who still lives with his parents.The film's twin character arcs involve Zahn "growing up and taking on responsibilities" and Aniston "letting go of responsibilities" and "taking care of herself". It's a nice bit of mirroring, but profundity is sidestepped in favour for our duo magically solving their problems by starting a soup kitchen for homeless people.As usual, there's a love triangle and a second man whom the film has to demonize in order to make Zahn more appealing, as well as a familiar "boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy gets girl" three act structure. But the film's overriding message – that people take on activities to escape themselves – is interesting in an existential way. 7.5/10 – This little cinematic fantasy serves as therapy for a certain type of person. It's cute, but nevertheless possesses a very creepy underside. Zahn's character, for example, is practically a stalker, and Aniston is far too quick to drop her skirt and offer conciliatory sex. Only a guy would write this stuff.Worth one viewing.

A generally sweet and unassuming little romantic comedy, "Management" pits a socially-backward, good-natured doofus (Steve Zahn ) against a near-psychotic super-stud (Woody Harrelson) for the attention and affections of a seemingly unattainable dream girl, played by Jennifer Aniston.Mike and Sue meet one night when Sue, a salesperson from Baltimore, stays at the motel Mike's parents own and operate - and where Mike works as handyman and general Mr. Fixit - in the Desert Southwest. Despite the stark personal and socioeconomic differences between them, Mike becomes so infatuated with Sue that he pursues her, first to Maryland, then to her boyfriend, Jongo's, home in Washington State."Management" is an uneven, though frequently endearing, minor-league romance that skates by on the likability and charm of its three lead performers. It doesn't always get the tone right, occasionally going too broad for its laughs, as when Mike, desperate to get back in touch with Sue, jumps out of an airplane and straight into Jongo's swimming pool. Still, when it's being low-keyed and tender and sticks to the rudiments of offbeat romance, the movie modestly and unassumingly works its way into our hearts - even if it defies credibility a good deal of the time.
