(read more) Sarah Huttington (Jennifer Aniston), is on her way home to Pasadena for her sister Annies (Mena Suvari) wedding. Her fiance Jeff Daly (Mark Ruffalo) is with her, but Sarah wants them to wait with their engagement announcement until after Annies wedding. Sarah has never felt close to her family and she feels that she has never fitted in. Back in Pasadena she hears a rumor that "The Graduate" (book and movie) are based on her family. Sarah struggles suddenly with a lot of questions. Did her grandmother and her mom have flings with the same man just before her parents married? Is she a strange mans child; does this explain why she does not fit in? Was her mother happy? Is she too facing a loveless marriage? Her decision is to ask the man in this love triangle, Beau Burroughs (Kevin Costner). With Jeffs blessing, Sarah heads for San Francisco, looking for the key to her past and to her future.

I like Jennifer Aniston, but here she is a bit outside her comfort zone in one way. Anistons Sarah is a cheating, self centred and slightly unlikable person. And Aniston has troubles to carry those characteristics in a convincing manner. I think the plotline with having "The Graduate" as a backdrop is in a way a cheap shot to catch a ride on a classic so to say. The acting is good in general, and it is not an unpleasent movie to watch. But, "Rumor Has It" is a movie you will easily forget as well.

really dunno how to react to this one..........odd!

To be honest, this movie creeped me out and disturbed me. I mean seriously? GROSS.

Not to mention that it wasn't funny, it wasn't romantic, and it had so many painful gaps in logic and story that it hurt. I would not reccomend this to anyone in any way shape or form. Steer clear!

Very Funny, what happened to the real "Robinson" family from "The Graduate" 30 years later!!!

A funny idea, alas, doesn't necessarily make for a funny movie.

It fails artistically but also philosophically, in that it rebuts the spirit of the earlier film, while offering nothing attractive in its place.

The real weak point is Reiner's listless direction, with too few scenes that almost gel and too many that fall flat.

Jesus may love Mrs. Robinson more than she will know, but some filmmakers don't seem to, based on their insistence on reviving her for the pallid and plodding Rumor Has It.

This is not a great movie, but it's very watchable and has some good laughs.
