(if i remember right) -- and it's a German movie. now, i supposed it to be a romantic-comedy but it's not actually that. it's not a comedy either. it's not successful at impacting and so the movie generally unsuccessful, unmoving and seems not professionally made. half star is for inspiring me to write a book!!!!!!!!!!! *o* See more 07/29/2010 Didn't really like the book, don't really like the movie..sorry See more 07/24/2010 An interesting movie at first, since I do like the main actor.
