Watch Leap Year For Free

Very Cool!!!

Excellent but underrated film

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This movie was on my radar for some time and it managed to do a rom-com's job. It was entertaining and had some funny moments. The lead actors had an easy chemistry and their banter was fun to watch. Most importantly, I was invested in the story from the get go.Anna (Amy Adams) has planned to propose to her boyfriend of 4 years. She has planned the proposal at Dublin, Ireland, where according to Irish customs, it is good luck for a woman to propose to a man on Leap Day. As she journeys from America to Ireland, where her boyfriend is attending a conference, she runs into bad luck when bad weather conditions put a damper on her plans. She finds herself in a bar where she meets Declan (Matthew Goode), who ultimately agrees to take her to Dublin by road, for a price. A black cat crosses her path before she begins her journey and villagers notify her that it would bring bad luck, but she continues on her path. Well, apparently the villagers were right. They got into trouble at almost every step.Amy Adams does the role of a neurotic best. She seemed to fit into the character's shoes so comfortably. Her frustrations with travelling to Dublin were rendered even funnier with her facial expressions. Matthew Goode was also quite good in his role as a cynic. Their chemistry was very fluid and real.The backdrop was absolutely breathtaking and the supporting characters enriched the film furthermore. The dialogue was crisp and witty and the comedy of errors, really engaging. Suspension of belief is a big requirement for this film since a lot of the events are slightly improbable, but overall, this was a good one-time watch. I enjoyed it a lot.

45 minutes... That's how long I bared with it...I mean, could it be more cliche??? I just wanted a chill evening with a feel good movie to go with it... And what I got, was only confusion and tiredness . Could she have a worse luck? Make a movie people, but at least make it even a little bit believable.. A NO NO for me

Leap year is a great story of people trying to live with their insecurities, wounds and expectations for future. Matthew Goode and Amy Adams are just excellent at their roles and people you can connect with as an ordinary person. Anna is the modern girl who works hard to reach her dreams and Declan the guy who needs somebody to believe in his strength and talents to bloom.Their story of true love is intriguing and so sweet that you wish you could also live something like that in a lifetime. Irelands' landscapes with the rough but exciting countryside is the best scenery for a romance to grow. It was worth watching from its big start.

Sometimes after seeing (and enjoying) a particular film several times over a period of years -- which BTW is the real acid test of a film, ie, whether it holds up -- you revisit the IMDb database and discover that, for whatever reason, the critics of the day did not agree.To which you may be inclined to quote a line of dialog from LEAP YEAR, and respond, the critics are "full of pooh." And indeed they are.This one has it all -- a subtle script that leads you rather than shoves you, great direction, great stars, and great scenery.It also features Adams at what may be the peak of her beauty. It would be an understatement to say that "the camera loved her." It would be more accurate to say that, if a camera could talk, it would have asked for her number by the last day of shooting.The ultimate compliment -- gets better with each viewing.
