7/10
A very romantic movie
5 May 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I saw this film as a second choice. The other film I intended to see was sold out. I didn't know what to expect except that I thought I didn't like Ashton Kutcher all that much going in.

He seems to be suddenly ubiquitous and way too prevalent in the mainstream media.

Anyway, I liked the range he showed in this film and felt his realistic portrayal and honesty was startling. This movie moves along in an episodic fashion and reminds me of "Annie Hall" a little bit.

We like both characters and feel they are perhaps destined to be together. We feel the tidal surges that bring them together at times and also understand that ebbing of that tide and their confusion about their relationship.

I must admit a few moments of the movie had me laughing (although it's not technically a "comedy") and the film also moved me to tears in a few spots.

I left feeling satisfied, thoughtful, and even hopeful that even in today's cynical world, with it's deceptions and snares, true love can exist.
