"How Do You Know" stars Reese Witherspoon as a baseball player and Olympic athlete, who is dropped from the national team, much to her distress. She begins dating a womanizing baseball player in Washington, DC, who she unwisely moves in with, without the benefit of a marriage.

Disasters comes next, as she realizes how selfish he can be. During the fighting, she continually confides in an executive she met, who is in legal hot water, thanks to his unscrupulous dad. I found this film very difficult to watch. No, not cause I’m dumb, because I’m not, but because the movie is quite tedious.

The well-known names starring in this film, Jack Nicholson and Reese Witherspoon, could not bring butts into movie theatres to see this disaster on celluloid and there is a reason for that. It is not a good or entertaining movie. Actually, it’s quite irritating. Seriously, this movie was bad.

The only thing funny and interesting about this film is Sony spent $120,000,000 to make the movie and only made $47,707,151 of that money back (and that's before taxes). Comedy indeed.
