In reading some of the other reviews, it seems very much that this is a film that people either love or hate. At first glance, it is very much the boy meets girl, boy likes girl, boy and girl date, boy and girl break up, boy and girl get back together and the world is wonderful place kind of story. It's a teen flick so yes, it's going to be predictable. Predictable, however, does not have to mean bad or boring. There was a great deal of emotional undertone to the story. It's about college love, which anyone who's been there knows isn't easy. The timing always seems to be wrong in one way or another. Like many other films, this one does not gloss over that part. It very honestly, I think, shows the kinds of problems that can evolve. Granted, I don't have any porn star turned rich lecturer friends, and I know no one who drank shampoo after a breakup, but there is definitely some measure of reality and honesty to this picture. Yes they end up together in the end (and no, that's not giving away the ending) but it wasn't an easy road nor is there an implication that it is going to be. Love isn't easy. It never has been. If it were easy, the feelings wouldn't have any meaning and this world would be a very dark place. This film captures that essence.
If you're asking for a plot that has twists and turns, something that is action packed, then don't see this film. It moves a little slowly and it is difficult to ascertain where some of the characters are coming from. But if you've been in love, if you are in love, if you've had your heart broken or broken someone else's, even if you want to fall in love, see this film. It reminds all of us that there is hope and that you can never completely give up on anybody. One day, you might just be surprised.
