Well I originally now i am writing a review for this, placed it as not interested and so after getting it for the wife and sitting down for some cuddle time I thoroughly enjoyed this flick. I normally poo poo Jenn Aniston's films and thought of all the ones i have seen aside from Derailed I think this is one of her greats. She has such emotion provoked eyes and fit the part nicely. Aaron Eckhart who I wouldn't go out of my way to see a film that has him as the headliner, was great in this but my hats has to go off to ole Martin Sheen who's little bit in this film was great bit of acting along with John Caroll Lynch who played one of Eckhart's character's followers and had lost a family member as well. I have seen John Lynch in only a handful of films but his acting is incredible in all i have seen. Rent this for any who need a good tear jerker cause it will definitely cause some wet faces this im positive...I had something stuck in my eye throughout that caused some tearing up damn next time ill be more prepared lol! Rent this one folks its a winner!
Awful waste of time during which not once was I emotionally invested in the characters - it was difficult to exercise empathy when the scenarios were so entirely clichéd, recycled and the characters so predictable, wooden, underdeveloped and devoid of any real charm. I am usually the first to cry and laugh at a good Rom Com and Love Happens only succeeded in making me cringe and pity Jennifer Aniston and wonder what happened between the Break Up and here. She seems to be playing out the romantic tragedies in her own personal life on-screen but to a cliché-ridden script. And, the vast number of product placements were horrifying. To be avoided at all costs, especially for genuine believers of love, like me! The 3 is for all the efforts put into the movie but not for the overall outcome.
Burke (Aaron Eckhart) is a successful self help guru dealing with the lost of his wife in a car accident. He has come to Seattle for a group seminar for people dealing with their own lost. Florist Eloise (Jennifer Aniston) literally runs into him in his hotel. He tries to ask her out but she pretends to be deaf.
As a romance, it fails. Both Aaron and Jennifer are likable actors but they just don't have the chemistry. Add to it the tough subject matter, it's too hard of a place for romance to blossom. As a character growth movie, it had some moments. Aaron is playing a character going thru some tough stuff. But then he does a silly thing like stealing a bird. It just feels stupid to have comedy there.

As a romance story, Love Happens is nothing special, with the spark between Eckhart and Aniston almost non-existent. But as a drama about grief, it's much more interesting, though the blend of both does not always sit easily.
As others have said, the characters are not very well developed and it's a fairly shallow romantic comedy. It's okay.
The one thing that bothered me was that Burke is supposed to release his deceased wife's cockatoo into the wild. Who in the world thought that up? Tropical bird that has been living in a house and has never learned to forage on its own will not last long in the wild. Especially a tropical parent that is taken out in cold weather and released. This bird has never built a nest so how's that bird going to stay warm? And there are not other cockatoos in Seattle living in the woods! This was really disturbing.
Jennifer Aniston is too good for these silly romantic movies. I wish you could get more meaty parts where she can show that she actually is an actress.

- QuizThe interior of Eloise's Garden was actually a high-end lingerie shop in Vancouver. The filmmakers redressed it as a flower shop.
- BlooperEloise chides her assistant for not cauterizing the roses. Roses are never cauterized. That would seal the stems so they would not be able to take up water. Roses in fact should be cut daily since the stems seal up naturally.
