Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRyan Reynolds was originally sought after for the lead male role, marking this a reunion with Sandra Bullock after The Proposal (2009) but a deal couldn't be reached.
- GoofsAfter Loretta removes Alan's leeches, the wounds are immediately shown as dark circles. However, when leeches latch on they release an anti-coagulant to prevent blood clotting and make it easier to feed, so when a leech is removed, there would be profuse bleeding which would likely continue for hours.
- Quotes
Loretta: Why are you so handsome?
Jack Trainer: My father was a weatherman.
- Crazy creditsThere is a short scene after the first part of the credits.

Featured review
7.0/10
I actually enjoyed this film way more than I expected. It perfectly fits into its categories of action, adventure, comedy, and romance.
The story was very enjoyable. It started off kind of wonky and felt like I was in for a bad time, but once the "prologue" passed and the main portion of the movie started it got much better.
The chemistry between Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum worked surprisingly well, and only got better as the film progressed. I did enjoy Daniel Radcliffe as the antagonist. More of a bratty rich boy than an evil "I want to murder everyone" kind of bad guy.
By the end I felt that the big part of the film was that the romance was definitely geared towards the women while the action parts were geared towards the men. The comedy could've gone either way, and some may find certain parts funnier than others, both scenes and what's actually funny.
I also enjoyed the score. The way certain soundtracks were worked into the scenes noticeably helped enhance them (as soundtracks should).
Overall, I think this film is perfect for a movie date night. It's funny, it's romantic, it has a pretty good action/adventure story and it's not as cheesy as most romcoms tend to be.
I hope my review helps you make a choice on this film. Until next time.... Enjoy the show!
