Surprise Me!

Yes, there are cheesy parts but I did find myself laughing quite a few times. There are serious parts, too. I liked how this movie portrayed friendship and family. There were quite a few good messages throughout the movie about relationships, self observation, and grief. I think it's a great movie for women and young women to watch. Or even couples. I like to watch lesser known or low budget movies and review them because for the ones that are good and worth watching, I want the writers to know they did a good job and to keep going. It wasn't perfect, but I was entertained the whole way. And I left feeling a more introspective. So, great job :)

This is a terrible movie. I only watched it because Nicole Sullivan was listed first and after seeing her play quirky sidekicks in Scrubs and Cougartown, I thought it would be interesting to see her ina leading role. But she's not the lead and the movie otherwise makes no sense. And the ending is absurd.

It took awhile to get going, but once it did my wife & I enjoyed it. There were some serious personal issues the main character had to deal with and there was some truth in how it was handled. It had a good mix of ups, downs and laughs as well. I felt that the film turned the corner with the introduction of the therapist character. She played a great part, bringing both levity and some serious introspection advice. As the main character starts out somewhat ok, then does a serious crash and burn, but at the end finds her true self and heals old and new wounds, and emerges as her own woman, strong enough to rise above the hardships that have held her back since her childhood. Throw in a nice slow percolating romance and a happy ending for good measure. I recommend it for you romcom fans, but you've got to hang in there for a bit until it gets up some steam. I think the cast, writers and production staff deserve to be proud of a nice indy film. Thanks for a good date night.

I can't believe how a film can have such great actors but such a horrible message and script. WHY has no one mentioned this yet? Why were the people who supposedly loved her \ ones she trusted letting her go through emotional and physical trauma!!! What type of message is this supposed to send! Horrible film . Horrible message! It only gets 1 star because in the last 5 minutes girl gets some comon sense. But she needed help and her friends and family did **** all to help her. Only one friend breifly mentions how toxic the guy is BUT ends up pushing them back together and participating at the "surprise" ???? NO. This is wrong on so many levels.

Trigger warning for anyone who has ever been in an emotionally abusive relationship.

For a chick flick it could have been much better with some minor changes, but the last scenes ruin the movie. For one, you can easily guess the outcome 30 minutes in. With some minor rewriting, they could've made this pretty cute.
