[An] aimless romantic-comedy caper.

This film will do nothing to displease the ever-growing legion of Sandra Bullock fans. It will, at the same time, add to the public recognition of Leary. It will, however, make no waves. It's merely a pleasant-enough time-waster.

Rated: 2.5/4

In this movie, she has a thief boyfriend and goes on a journey to escape from people. he didn't expect the trip to change everything. While they were running away, they mingled with the people of the village, but someone followed them. this movie can show that things start to change even unexpectedly. The director directed the movie very well and it became a movie that understood the hearts of the audience.

Absolutely dreadful. Slow, boring and the lead guy is painful to watch. Even Sandra Bullock cannot pull this out of the dark hole it fell into.
