    Synopsis

    The balance of power in four couples’ relationships is upset when the women start using the advice in Steve Harvey’s book, Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man, to get more of what they want from their men. When the men realize that the women have gotten a hold of their relationship “playbook,” they decide that the best defense is a good offense and come up with a plan to use this information to their advantage.

      Think Like a Man is what it is. But its hangout factor is considerable, because the actors' charms are considerable.

      Entertainment Weekly

      Think Like a Man is so busy tracking courtship as if it were a science project that the bite-size love stories lack spontaneity.

      The Hollywood Reporter

      As executed by an appealing ensemble of smooth operators, this adaptation often hits its amusing marks, but with a weighty running time of two hours, it often feels more like a lecture than an intended romp.

      Time Out

      Surprisingly entertaining, thanks to the cast's collective chemistry and the film's balance of appealing elements for both sides of the gender divide.

      Slant Magazine

      Unfortunately, like so many women have prophesized regarding the weaker gender's lack of commitment, there's just not enough follow through.

      The result is a tiresome exercise that circles at great length through various prefabricated stories defined by the advice each couple needs (or doesn't need).

      Variety

      While the result deserves some credit for finding a creative way to bring the book to life, the overlapping storylines simply aren't compelling enough, despite the best efforts of a game and attractive cast.

      Enduring a day-long session of couples' therapy is more fun (and flies by faster) than this film.
