Fans of romantic comedies know the cliches. We expect them, we love them, and this film delivers them. And when you pick a movie like this, isn't that exactly what you want?
The execution isn't perfect. The middle of the film drags a little with the B story involving the leading lady's family. Personally I think a couple of sequences could have been edited down or cut. In fact, I found myself forgetting some side plots, it they hardly mattered to the main plot. In truth, many of these elements are there for comic relief.
But the movie never forgets what it is supposed to be. By the end, the whole thing just goes for everything you would want and it is glorious.
