Surprisingly good

Rating: 7/10 (31 January 2003)

That's not to say it's great, but it is to say that not only is it much better than I was expecting -- a friend had to talk me into seeing it -- it's quite good. The clichéd parts are kept to a minimum (although their presence in an otherwise good movie makes them that much more glaring). Both leads perform the rom-com cute/serious balancing act well. Not a classic by any means, but more entertaining than most of the others in the same class, certainly by modern standards.
