Good DVD
3 August 2012 | by (Australia) – See all my reviews

I really enjoyed this film for a lazy winters Friday night ..

Of course being from Melb it's always fun to watch movies made near home, I will agree not the most amazing cinematography and the story line or way scenes were constructed didn't really flow. Some of the music tracks are not timed well..

Having said that very entertaining, made me smile and did make me want to fall in love with some good quotes about life and commitment evoking feelings of nostalgia. I guess being 28 myself can relate a lot to the story and becoming relationship focused!

The dude is 30 playing a 27 yr old so it's not as far fetched as others claim..

It would be great to see more Aussie films in future that go the next level, but heading in the right direction.
