Skip this film.

Rating: Null/10 (24 March 2005)

This was shown as an in-flight movie and its a good thing too, otherwise I would have walked out on it. Renée Zellweger's accent is grating to listen to and the story is very weak. Although I like Renée Zellweger in other films I have seen, she is horrible in this story. The film has no contrast because there are few frames of the film that Renée Zellweger doesn't appear in. The truly milk-toast matter in which her character is presented is insulting to her acting talents. I think too much focus on the fact she beefed up for the role was about the only thing done right for the film. I feel the hype about her weight gain was to compare her efforts to Robert De Niro as he did in Raging Bull. This is no classic.
