This provided us with a rare treat - a preview that told us just enough about the movie, but didn't give the plot away. I've ranted about crappy trailers before, so please understand that I was really appreciative of this one. Bounce is, as I've said, a romance. Don't go to this movie expecting surprises. As I said in my review of Return to Me , if you don't know the answer, you should.
Romances are never about surprises.
If we wanted the lovers to have a bittersweet affair that could never really turn into a relationship, we would watch The English Patient . Romances are about how the characters fall for each other and how they manage to deal with the emotional road block that prolongs the happy ending. With that in mind, the movie does a pretty good job. Not a great job, but a pretty good job. Here I will get into a few spoilers, but it's nothing you don't get in the first five minutes of the film.
