Just watched this at least second time today. I liked it even better this time.

The premise isn't overused. The story doesn't have much in the way of surprises, but that's OK. And yes, it is sappy, but that's why I liked it.

Brooke D'Orsay and Eric Mabius have great chemistry. There is a slight disconnect when Annie is trying to self-justify their high school history. I didn't get why she was so insistent where she kept saying things went well when she didn't remember. I think once would have been enough. Still, they were great together. You could almost see the magnetic lines pulling them together.

D'Orsay does a good job with the dichotomy of being so confident about some things like dating yet falling short of success in life. At times she even looks a little unkempt especially in the beginning.

Mabius makes a nice transition from reclusive dork to a man of confidence. The writers gave Harold a nice touch having him be such a romantic despite his lack of confidence to start.
