Hitch Film Analysis

Revision Review of Hitch

While the movie Hitch captures its audience by providing comic relief and relationship advice, there are aspects and parts in the movie that could be improved to provide more enjoyment to the viewers. The plot line is well-developed overall as it is a typical romantic comedy, yet it can be too predictable at times. From the moment when actors Will Smith, who plays Alex Hitchens and Eva Mendes, who plays Sara Melas meet, there was an instant attraction, and from that moment forward, the audience is able to predict the way the movie will transpire. While the screenwriters maintained the characteristics of a typical romantic comedy such as humor, authenticity, dedication, and chemistry within a love story, the plot was

The chemistry begins as boy meets girl, in a stereotypical location, a bar. While the other main couple, Albert Brenaman and Allegra Cole encounter each other at work. It is not until Hitch advises Albert, that Allegra notices him. Both male roles have to be noticed and try to sweep the girl off her feet. Hitch is able to read Sara Melas like a book just by analyzing some of her characteristics. Unlike Hitch, Albert does not know the best way to woo a girl which is why he and the Date Doctor, Hitch cross paths. Kevin James plays the role of Albert Brenaman well by representing the type of guys who often remain unnoticed, but are very sweet, fun, and compassionate. These types of guys just have to find a way to get noticed and make an impression, which is why the Date Doctor was called in to help. Hitch helps this unnoticed accountant finally gain the courage to make a move on his crush, the beautiful, dominant character of Allegra Cole, played Amber Valletta. This is a fitting role for Amber Valletta as well due to her looks and kind nature.

The fact that the love story falls into place makes this movie more predictable because of course the guy has to get the girl. In both situations the audience knew the guy

There may be love at the first encounter and relationships flourish, but it doesn’t always go smoothly. Although there is conflict the audience can tell that the people in the relationship still have feelings for one another and will work to mend the relationship. An example of a conflict in Hitch is when the love stories intertwine and the news breaks out that Alex Hitchens is the Date Doctor. He is the one who sets up men to use women, or so the ladies think. In reality the girls who have been affected by Hitch due to his relationship advice, actually did fall in love and they may not have ever met their soul mate without Hitch. Even though there was conflict and it seemed as though the relationship would fall apart, you did a good job of continuing the script to create that happily ever
