Management (2008)
A couple of movies back, I cautioned Jennifer Aniston against taking strictly “girlfriend” roles in which, if her character was eliminated from the story, there would be virtually no consequence. She must have heard me. In Management, she plays much more than a flighty, bohemian squeeze for a bigger star. She plays a skirt-suited, professional career woman, who takes a slightly odd love interest…and first billing.
The script zigzags between dark comedy and awkward romance, matching the questionable pairing of Aniston and Steve Zahn. And while it masters neither genre, it’s not at all unpleasant to watch. Some of the romance is cringe-worthy, and some of it is really sweet. I’ve seen it twice. Try it once and see if you like it!
