Learn When To Cut It Out!!!!

Rating: 6/10 (24 July 2008)

The first hour of this movie was okay. Nothing great, but not bad. It was watchable. Some of the moments were funny. And Amanda Seyfried (sorry if I spelled that wrong) was surprisingly good at playing the lead roll.
But past that, things start to go down hill. Particularly during and after the wedding scene where it seems like everything is just flying out of the blue. It doesn't make sense! Where did these feelings come from? What is going on? And then the movie keeps going...and going, and going. It's like they tried to fit as many songs into the last 20 minutes as they possibly could, and it wasn't the good songs either. The movie goes flat and so did my patience with it.
I can't imagine seeing this on stage. But if they didn't change anything about the end result then I don't see myself enjoying the stage play either. Sorry, it was just a little too over-the-top.
