This movie is visually stimulating. It is visually stimulating because the actors starring in it are very attractive. Especially the females, one of whom is the very pretty Sarah Paxton who is lovely to look at and also Connie Nielsen who is gorgeous.
Unfortunately it fails to be stimulating in any other way. The story is formulaic and uninspired. After watching it, I felt like I'd seen this sort of movie a million times before, but often better written.
For a romantic comedy it's far more awkward than romantic and I did not get to laugh once, which is saying a lot as I'd had a few glasses of wine before my viewing and I'm a pretty jovial young lady as is.
You are constantly reminded that the characters are not real but instead actors playing a part. The lines and acting in this film feel scripted and inorganic.
It seems like a made for TV sort of movie. Perhaps that is what it is and if so it is adequate but it's definitely a one time watch only kind of film.
