User Reviews

He was a 10 and she was...

I have never reviewed a movie before. There has been many amazing movies I wanted to review and many bad ones... not one of them invoked enough energy to overcome my laziness to write a review. This one did. What get's me the most is that, although formulaic, this could have been a cute holiday movie if it wasn't for the lack of chemistry of the actors. I am sorry to say but the male lead was like a 10 out of 10 and the female was a 5 at most. If we had a better match, a believable match, coupled with awesome chemistry this could have been a great little holiday movie. Very disappointing. What a waste. Better casting next time please.
