P.S. I want a refund

Rating: 2/10 (12 January 2008)

This movie was physically painful to watch; I was compelled to leave the theater before the opening credits were complete. After watching the trailer, the very first time, I was supremely confident when I informed my significant other this movie would blow; however she asked nicely, so not only did I agree to sit through this borefest, I paid good money to do so. Although my wife absolutely loves this genre, even she tapped-out after only watching 30 minutes of this train wreck.
With the exception of a few beautifully filmed scenes of Ireland's countryside, this film has zero redeeming qualities. The overall production would have been much better had it been 115 minutes shorter. Although classified as a love story, there is no love and there is no story. There is also absolutely no chemistry between the two main characters, Hilary Swank and Gerard Butler. Every female feminist and traditionalist who dares to watch this movie should be both appalled and embarrassed by Swank's character's pathetic behavior. There is nothing romantic about this film, there is nothing comedic about this film. The acting by the entire cast is average at best. Hilary was miscast for this part; she doesn't look comfortable in any scene; she is neither funny nor believable at any level. Producers should have obtained the services of a comedian for Holly's character. Lisa Kudrow looks tired and ragged and she also brings the same facial expressions, voice and mannerisms from her "Friends'" character, Phoebe. What is the point of Harry Connick, Jr.'s part? The ending of this film was perfect, just as meaningless and uneventful as the rest of the movie.
If you possess an IQ above 60 or you enjoy romantic comedies, do yourself a favor and don't see this movie. Also, when released, be sure not to rent this movie or buy the DVD. It will be the best four hours of your life you did not waste. This film should have never been funded or produced; it is one of the worst movies I have seen in the past year. I just want a refund.
