geared toward single females

Rating: 6/10 (20 October 2007)

This movie aims for one audience, the single female. The two women in this have these two nearly perfect romances while on vacation. What every single 30 year old woman wishes.
In this movie, Amanda travels to England for Christmas while Iris goes to LA to stay in her home. Iris likes one of Amanda's friends, whom breaks up with his girlfriend. That leaves room for Iris to move in.
Amanda falls for Iris's brother, played by Jude Law. In the movie he is a widower with two kids and is supposed to be all sweet and perfect. I think he is miscast, just not believable because everyone knows that Law has not been Mr. Perfect in real life. He's cheated on his wife and later another girlfriend. I just can't take him seriously as someone who deserves pity or good things.
The movie is cute in places, a few laughs. But it is just too idealic for two losers in love to find the perfect guy in 2 weeks.
FINAL VERDICT: I guess if you are 30 year old woman, then you may want to check it out, but this is not for everyone.
