Definitely a "chick flick"

Rating: 7/10 (17 February 2005)

My wife begged and begged me to rent this movie. I had no idea what it was about when I rented it. She said she heard from some co-workers that actually read the books, yes, more than one, that it was a good movie. So I watched it. I don't think I would actually buy it for myself though! It's narration was good from the standpoint of James Garner who is a fine actor in his own! Rachel Mcadams' character was good also. She basically stole the show. I was trying to keep up with the story of it and couldn't follow much of the characters. The ending of it, however, was much of a surprise. You really had to follow two different stories to understand what was going on. If you like the "mushy" love stories, you would like this one!
