This type of movie is NOT my kind of movie. Ever. I'm not a big fan of rom com or fulla hope or very predictable love between opposites, etc. SO. I am guessing that the people who dig that kind of thing expected that nonsense and got pissed about it. People who do not like this kind of movie probably will like this movie. I've read thru nearly all the reviews, and the higher scores mention that they didn't expect to like this movie.
I'm in that group. I put it on cuz I like so many of the actors, and I love any movie shot on a location where I've never been. I will sit thru utter garbage just for architecture. Or it ends up that way.
Anyway, I liked the broken up stories, the Mickey Roarke segment was predicable but still incredibly lovely. Diego in drag ALONE is worth it. (Is that a spoiler? Will mark it as such just in case. People set themselves on fire for far less these days.)
Now, I'm not saying run out and watch this NOW. I'm saying go into it without huge expectations, a lot of predictability and some fun. I wasn't bored in the least to tell you the truth and again: NOT my kinda movie.
