A breath of fresh air!
No violence, no foul language, no graphic sex scenes, just a good old fashioned love story!
Well acted with enough humour to make the film enjoyable rather than sickly sweet. -

It's an O.K. film if you want a bit of light entertainment but it's certainly not the best romantic comedy I've seen. I rented it because I've seen Reese Witherspoon in other films and liked her, but I don't think that this really stands up in comparison. Her performance is good, as are most of the other actors in the film. The biggest problem I had with this film was the plot. The script doesn't really seem to hang together, it's not particularly funny and I thought that the scene at the very beginning with the children kissing was frankly a bit creepy. I don't really know what the director intended with this film but it doesn't really seem to work.

Excellent Chick Flick
If you enjoy a good chick flick with a cheesy happy ending you will enjoy this.
A good film to spend a relaxing eveing watching where you don't have to concentrate too follow the story

Fun Chick flick
If it’s cold outside, and you have a cold bottle of chardonnay inside and a couple of free hours one evening, then this could be the choice for you. Saying that the plot's predictable may be an understatement, but it's still a fun movie. The acting's good and the music was a pleasant surprise. This may not be a movie to put at the top of your rental queue but it's still worth watching if you have the free time.

It's not *that* predictable.
I tried ignoring this film when my wife began playing it, but something really caught me. It contains sufficient plot angles to keep you interested.
It's no critics choice, but it's great family entertainment. When you've seen all your favourites, add this to cheer yourself up. -

Sweet!!
God I loved this film. Was not expecting it to be to good but I have watched 8 times in 2 weeks. I loved all of it. It is very much a girls film and I also found the first ending available to watch on bonus features very good and prehaps prefered it. I would recomend this to anyone who loves a chic flick with a great looking guy in it!
