The movie got off to a nice start going against the way so many of these movies start out. Instead of expecting her boyfriend to propose, she proposed. Then he's the one who isn't sure. So instead of the guy dumping her, she dumps him (she thinks). Actually, it was almost a mutual dumping, but only after she told him off.
There was none of the usual animosity between the romantic leads. Holly was a bit slow to warm to Jake, but that was grief over the breakup. It didn't take long and the two were having a great time. Jennifer Freeman and Johnny Pacar have good chemistry.
Unfortunately, about the time when Phil was wising up (the ex always shows up again), the movie goes off the rails. Phil was a complete selfish jerk. The girl he runs to at first, Tiffany, might have been more of a jerk. Everyone, including Holly, got mean from that point and I was ready to say "who cares?"
There is some physical comedy and some good lines and situations. The climax is kind of cute.
I think if the Phil's return had been handled differently, I might have liked this movie. He was extremely mean. As it is, I had mixed feelings.
