From the reviews, I didn't have high hopes for this movie. But since I'm a sucker for romantic comedies and see everyone that comes out because there are not many that do come out, I couldn't resist this one.
It looked like a silly "slapstick" type of movie that relied on stupid "pie in the face" jokes for humor. But it wasn't like that. It did have those moments, but these were mostly fantasy sequences. Because I didn't have much hope for the movie, I was pleasantly surprised. It did have heart and although you know how it ends (don't you know how all romantic comedies end?), it's not as predictable as one might think. I thought the ending was clever.
Michael Varton is a cutie. (I now have to start checking out Alias.) I've never seen what the big deal was with Jane Fonda. She looks very old in this movie. But Jennifer Lopez is good. I like her in these sweet roles.
