In the Ugly Truth, Mike Chadway, played by Gerald Butler, is the ladies man of all ladies men, who hosts a cable access show called The Ugly Truth. Abby Richter, a news producer played by Katherine Heigl, however, sees Chadway as a male chauvinistic pig, that gives women horrible advice on men.

In a twist of faith, Richter is forced into working with Chadway, in an effort to boost the ratings for her news station. In an effort to get Chadway off her station, Richter makes a deal with Chadway. If she can snag the hunky next-door neighbor she has been eyeing using Chadway’s advice, Richter will allow Chadway to run his show the way he sees fit. However if his advice does not work out, Chadway must quit his job.

Although at first she is annoyed with his antics, they appeared to come in handy when her neighbor, Colin, finally seems to notice her.

A hysterical trip is what you’re in for, if you buy tickets to see The Ugly Truth. Gerard Butler and Katherine Heigl are a hilarious pair who delve deep into what men and women really want. By the end of the movie you are begging the two to get together, even though she’s a control freak and he’s a loose cannon. It becomes clear that these two characters compliment each other well, and help to break down each other’s emotional barriers.

The Ugly Truth is wonderfully funny all the way through.
