Chicago Sun-Times, Richard Roeper says: "This is a romantic comedy filled with moments we recognize from other, mostly better, romantic comedies ." He also says "...the surprises would be surprises only if this is, like, your fourth movie ever." And I have to agree with both of those comments, but still it's a reasonably entertaining movie with some good moments. Certainly filled with star power and Kate Winslet has a very good performance. For a rental on a night when you want something light, try this one on. It has an MPAA rating of PG-13 for sexual content and some strong language, so choose your audience.
