This movie has a number of great actors, and a plot that is quite interesting, with lot of opportunities for development. Unfortunately almost every sequence in the movie has to be interrupted by a camera view of a moving vehicle of some kind, together with loud popular music that distracts from what is going on. The film never manages to convince the viewer of the reality that is facing any of the characters, and just pretends like these things can happen without repercussions. There are a few fun moments, which are enough to get you to the end of the movie, but it is likely you're better of watching something else.

A few months ago I read a review on the Internet Movie Database that complained about the large amount of fake reviews that are posted by people that saw the "preview" which are always positive. At the time I thought that was an odd notion, and dismissed it, until I read the reviews of this movie. They all, invariably, contained the following elements: * Pleasantly surprised There is very little surprising about this movie. If you go to see it, you should know what to expect. The trailer gives away a lot of the plot, and the movie follows a standard pattern.

* Kurt Russell

> Personally I don't care about actors, as long as they act. In this case, the acting is adequate, but certainly not stealing the show.

* Lot of laughs

> True, there is some laughing, though you can see most jokes coming from a distance.

* Good plot twists

> Please... Maybe if this movie was shown 50 years ago.

* Nice message for youngsters/Good for children

> The way I see the message, there might be some aspects that one should be wary of. Of course, children can handle a lot, and this movie won't harm them, but to say it is positive might be stretching it.

If you have seen any sample of "romantic" Hollywood films, you've seen

this movie. It is therefore not recommended that you watch it, unless

you are going to write a movie script for another Hollywood movie. If

you do, consider shortening the movie to about half its length, and use

the remaining time to expand the last minute of the movie (before the

credits, of course). This, by the way, in no means implies that that

last minute is any better than the preceding many, but that they could

have been.
