The whole movie, in fact, is filled with good small moments; it's the big moments that don't seem convincing.

Rated: 2/4

The movie, in other words, is insufferably quaint, and not a lot else.

this movie is about adventure, she breaks up with a guy but she doesn't want to fall but she manages to get back up. He did not think that a second life would appear again, it is amazing that he fell in love with her. It's a great movie that gives people the courage to get up after being depressed.

I think this is a nice little film about an offbeat girl in an offbeat town who falls for an offbeat guy. I really like the script and the performances by Rosanna Arquette, Eric Roberts and Jim Youngs.

Okay romance, nothing too special. Arquette's acting elevated the film a bit for me, plus I like the 80's vibe it has (it even has Dokken music).

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
