Plays out like an antidote to films like Napoleon Dynamite that seem to exist for no other reason than to make audiences feel superior to lower-class buffoons. Go to Full Review

Steve D 09/27/2023 Should have been something I really enjoyed but the script wasn't good enough. See more 05/02/2016 Kinda cheesy but fairly alrightee. See more 05/30/2015 If you thought that your family was insane, you might want to watch this movie, you might actually start to think ours is normal. See more 02/06/2015 Sometimes cheesy just works. This is a pretty light movie but sometimes you can get a lot of emotion out of those movies. I've seen it countless times. So while movies like this are a bit on the cheesy side, it's virtually impossible to not like them. I love movies about writers and books and this is one of those...kind of. You have attractive girl and her attractive guy friend. They're just friends. He ghost writes romance books. Yadda yadda, they get along so well together but we've seen it a million times in movies and in life...they just can't be together. Won't get into spoilers, but it's a nice plot twist of sorts what happens. Eh, I've probably seen something like that done better, but it's done in a way that brings out a little emotion and really makes you pull for the characters. In the end, it's just a nice flick about love in its many different forms. See more 02/17/2014 Not the worst movie ever made, but almost. Really forced with skewed timelines and very unrealistic. See more 08/01/2013 Typical rom/com with a ok story. See more Read all reviews
