What was the point of this movie? This was supposed to be a romcom, but it was anything but that. The fact that there was almost no chemistry between the leads wasn't even the biggest problem. It was the split screens! You have no hope of building anything if you're almost never in the same space. Yes, I agree you can build a bond through online communication, but you need to meet. If there is something to be learned from this movie, it's that you need much more than technology to build a strong and healthy relationship, especially a romantic one. On top of that, the writing just didn't make sense. The characters seemed massively underdeveloped and it was so boring at times that it was hard to follow. And again, I believe the main problem had to do with the film's long distance angle. So are there any bright spots? Well, Reese Witherspoon seems to do a good job with almost any script she's given. You can't help but admire her ability to draw you in while starring in even the poorest movies. The only problem is that you can't expect one person to carry a movie. Kutcher just looked tired. I don't even think he wanted to be there. Why on earth would he?
