I snagged the last ticket of a sold out showing of Down to You. Out of the whole audience, I firmly believe that I was the only non-attatched male present, amongst the crowd of couples and groups of high-school girls. The movie was, as predicted, a standard "chick-flick/date movie." However, it surprised me. There were a few decent and funny moments to it, and it did have all the requisite elements of a romance story: Meet, fall in love, hit some rocks, fall out of love, and then get reunited. (This is a spoiler if you're utterly unfamiliar with romance movies.) The movie did manage to impress even a sad and bitter guy like me. (I sort of identified with Selma Blair's (of Cruel Intentions) character.) Sure, it was "cookie-cutter," but it was a tasty cookie. 7/10
