Saccharin overload! Remarkably naff & implausible
27 January 2007
As one who is quite fond of romantic comedies (providing they are done well) there were several problems I had with this film. The main one is how implausible it was, and the second was how predictable the ending and all the bits in between were. Rees Witherspoon is a brilliant actress, and does the best she can with a poor script and a plot that lacks credibility. Jon Heder puts in a good performance as the surfer dude psychic, which was quite funny at times. The San Francisco setting was pretty impressive with some great views over the bay & city, but sadly this work was more remarkable for how naff it was. I came away feeling the effects of a saccharine overdose, topped by "The Holiday" which is out at present. Sorry folks, this is just a bit rubbish.
