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.

[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
