    Bullock, easing into her mid-40s with box-office mojo intact, remains the star attraction as the annoyingly endearing Mary. You simply can't imagine another actor of her stature pulling it off.
  2. There are good movies to be made about romantic obsession, but the premise doesn't work if the crazy stalker isn't juxtaposed with a sympathetic victim.
  3. There’s nothing wrong with All About Steve that a rewrite couldn’t fix, as long as the rewrite involved a different writer, a different character and a different story.

    The screenplay by Kim Barker requires Bullock to behave in an essentially disturbing way that began to wear on me. It begins as merely peculiar, moves on to miscalculation and becomes seriously annoying.

    I liked the movie first of all because I like the way she stalks the dude or whatever, relatively funny. The SECOND reason is Bullocks is hot.

    Gigantic piece of donkey shit. If anyone enjoys this movie even remotely they need to see a psychiatrist or commit seppuku for betraying the human race. I'm extremely disgusted that I wasted an hour and a half watching this "movie." Expand
