While I was watching the movie, I really had the feeling I was enjoying everything, thanks to the way the actors managed to pull off their roles. To me, the chemistry between the two looked absolutely perfect. Ashton looked very sincere in the role of the shy guy, and Amanda was well chosen as the crazy yet vulnerable girl. Their face expression and their connection made everything worth watching.
The plot was perhaps a little bit stretched and predictable, but all in all everything looked a lot like real life, and like a very real relationship. Two people knowing each other for years and searching around for love in other relationships, but not realising they are actually so strongly connected, and the guy taking too much time to make the first step.
All in all I loved it, for the great chemistry between them, for them being sincere and vulnerable, but charming, for the good humour, for the great soundtrack...It left me light hearted when I left the cinema, so I'm quite confused for the low rating it has here. Isn't this what one would expect from a good romantic comedy?
