User Reviews

More than a Romance... Witty and smart!

This is a very smart, witty and fast paced movie that considers the possibility of opening up to second chances. I can relate with both Reeves's cynicism and Ryde's negativity due to a broken heart. It is not a surprise to me the low reviews this film got by the press because only someone that have been in the same place as them or have the same views in life can understand how brilliant this movie really is. An applause to the way the sad conversations and awkward moments were transformed in sarcastic and fun jokes. I find this film very similar to "Wakefield" in its essence. Definitely a must see!
