Maybe I shouldn't comment on this movie as I couldn't finish watching it. It was that bad. I like romantic comedies; and I don't mind if the story is predictable as long as the leading characters have charisma. This movie had nothing going for it.

I am a guy and Denise Richards was unwatchable. She and her character seemed to be fake and shallow. Her character can't forgive her ex-husband for cheating on her but has no problem with a groom pursuing her, and seems to be flattered by his attention. It doesn't seem to matter he will be wed in a month's time in an upcoming wedding she is planning. I guess this is because they "met cute" and she is single and supposedly "not looking" and doesn't need a man. After realizing this is her character I gave up on the movie as I found her offensive. Denise Richards has no acting ability or charisma to allow me to overlook her character's hypocrisy.

Dean Cain was OK as his role was just to be the "perfect guy". His role was just to be eye candy to the women and gay men watching this movie. Just ignore that his character is pursuing Denise Richards when he is about to be married in a month to another woman.

Denise Richard's voice over describing her actions shows how bad this movie is. Rather than have us learn her character and motivations by her actions we can just listen to her drone on about what is happening. Who needs to watch the movie - just close your eyes and listen. The voice over is often the writer's lazy and/or incompetent way of writing and usually is a sign of a bad movie when they have to tell you what is going on.

If you are in the mood for a romantic comedy, watch a screwball comedy from the 1930s with either Jean Arthur, Myrna Loy, or Jean Harlow. These are smart, witty, funny women with charisma.

Denise Richards and Dean Cain are mismatched (chemistry-wise), and seem almost awkward as a couple at times. But there are rare moments where they actually shine (such as the dance at the Fireman's ball where he saves her from a drunken comrade), and it's not a complete waste of time. The only severely annoying part is the cliché inner monologue by Richards. Apparently, her acting wasn't complex enough to infer these occasional exclamations and explanations. It just feels a touch oblique. Or maybe I'm being critical--either way, it impeded my ability to watch the movie without being aware of the devices. But the ending was satisfactory (if predictable), and the fiancée was sufficiently horrific to relieve you of any guilt about her being so easily cast aside. All in all, not a complete waste of time...

Having watched many a romantic comedy, I found this one adorable and easy to like. Walk into it knowing it's not going to be complex, and you'll enjoy it. Admittedly, it's a little heavy on what most find to be typically romantic. The guy - handsome, funny, sweet, handsome, charming, handsome, romantic, considerate - is a little too perfect, but the story is about the girl's transformation, not his. So, that can be forgiven. It's a nice movie to enjoy when you're craving something light-hearted and sweet.

A great and excellent comedy movie, that I have found and saved on my Tubi list. I can watch this movie over and over again. A cool movie to watch with no cursing and a great plot and characters. The cast was a delight to watch and then some. Great comedian scenes and humor as the plot gets interesting and funny. A true romantic will love this movie and the comedy that goes with it. Beautiful and wonderful at in one. More movies like this one should be made in the future, to just enjoy and bring a face to a person face, especially if they are having a bad day and want to relax and watch a movie.

I'm a fan of Denise Richards, I admit. I think she is incredibly beautiful and has the potential for being a great actress. Again, I rented this movie from Hollywood Video, I couldn't help myself, I think it's that female magnet thing in my head. :D But seriously, I thought that this was an adorable film that anyone could enjoy. True, mostly girls. But it was still fun.

I didn't realize that this was a made for TV movie, but still it was a good little film. Denise Richards plays a wedding planner who has a mean boss and a client who is a brat. When she meets a hunky fire fighter played by Dean Caine, she is in love. He is interested as well, but she thinks that's her client's fiancée. But when she finds out that he isn't and it's his brother's fiancée, they start a steamy relationship, but then she finds out that the fiancée is sleeping with a certain family member. Can she still trust him and hope her heart doesn't get broken?

You'll have to find out that one for yourself. This is a cute movie to watch with the girls and I'll admit 100% that I enjoyed this film as well.
