Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

jadams414 I have given myself a day to calm down before 'voicing' my critique of this shoddy film. What happened to the terrific Matthew Modine? So much of it needed editing. The contrived situations, the change in mood, the ridiculous outcome . . . why? Could have been a fairly decent film, if only someone with brains would have stepped in and watched the dailies. Pitiful. Example: if someone is a teetotaler, they have ways to refuse taking a drink. Chug-a-lugging wine, just to bolster ones nerve, is extremely juvenile, and not in character for our leading lady. Why resort to gym shoes, when dancing barefoot has been the norm for hundreds of years. (Not that the wedding was even formal, which is another atrocity). Nothing jived. Scrambled nonsense. Only satisfying moment was when her selfish fiancée exited her life.

rroddi I have been watching new movies all summer and just happened to read the box on this new arrival to the video store and thought the plot sounded funny. After watching it I was more than pleased. I could watch it over and over. Perhaps the people who posted a comment before me need to be soon fed a plot to be able to understand a movie. When the 2 main characters kiss it is obvious that even though they have been fighting with each other for however long, that they have technically formed a friendship and he is so depressed (obvious from the beginning) and she is completely unsatisfied with her current relationship (obvious from every scene with the fiancée and lunches with friend)...well... I think the movie is completely believable and I wish it didn't have to end.I am going to be adding this movie to my collection.

davidshort10 I would quite like to rate this higher but I can't, only because it has TV rather than cinematic qualities. I just watched it 'this rainy afternoon' (partly because I don't much like soccer/football and this afternoon was the Cup Final, and partly because it is a great way of admitting you watched a movie in the afternoon, even though it was Saturday - Joan Collins used the seem excuse in the current issue of the UK magazine The Spectator. A 'rainy afternoon'. She was watching it (Only the Good Die Young) the same 'rainy afternoon' I was.This is almost like a different version of Green Card, but the French person is the girl not the guy. I love romantic comedies about how the right man and the right girl woman get together. If you do too, then watch this at home and keep the Kleenex handy if you're the kind of man that weeps at sentimentality.And that's not a spoiler because it's obvious what's going to happen.But to use a Frenchwoman as the model for a career-driven person who doesn't understand the value of family until she gets a pedicure from the guy's teenage daughter doesn't make sense.

craigcameron In the mold of the traditional 'Pride and Prejudice' romance. This adds a little extra character depth and a number of excellently crafted comical moments all wrapped around a fairly simple plot of ice lady meets lost, passionate artistic man. Entertaining and real. Nothing new, just nice to smile through an hour or so of your life. Matthew Modine takes on the role of the forlorn architect desperate to show he can disprove his ex wife's opinion of him as the eternal dreamer. He plays the comic moments very well with his easy smile. Michèle Laroque in the first English speaking role of hers I have witnessed takes the aloof ice maiden model and gives it a light comical edge from the first to the last as she is slowly warmed....
