This movie contained so many truism's in some exaggerated scenarios, but the blend made for moments that you could identify with and others that were for sheer entertainment value. If you have ever dated,fallen in love, and wondered if you would find "the one" this movie takes you down this road for an enjoyable trip!!!
The lead character Kate is definitely a woman who is letting her 'inner child'take the lead when it comes to dating...that is until she meets Adam. He is unconventional, honest, and has a great sense of humor--so naturally he is her new best friend. The friendship, relationship, and appreciation they have for one another makes you evaluate the quality of relationships; and as a result you either appreciate what kind of relationships you have or long for what you could have. A movie that will make you think & giggle!
