One of the better textbook, cardboard cutout rom-coms that came out during the 00s. The supporting cast is what pushes it from meh to good.

A tad predictable but what else do you expect from an early 2000s romcom? Worth a watch

It’s a good movie but the plot feels a bit predictable because many movies use it.

This film is so heartwarming. They do a great job of making you believe in the love story without demonising the peripheral characters.
