Very best movie i ever watch
An Exercise In Nonsense
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
After a lonely woman saves the life of a complete stranger, she's mistaken for his fiancé and slowly becomes integrated into his family, due to his coma. As her true identity couldn't be verified by anybody, everything seems to be well, until his brother shows up, whose character is about to play a very important role in the upcoming events.It's a lovely and romantic comedy, set in the heart of the winter holidays, which tells an improbable love story about two complete strangers who fall in love without their will and as much as they try to resist, as close they eventually become. It creates a warm and enjoyable atmosphere which lasts until the end. The actors play their roles very convincingly, making you care about their characters while keeping you eager to find out what will happen next and how it's going to end. Besides all of the above, it also manages to make you laugh from time to time, even out loud, just to spice things up a bit. It's a very good movie for everyone to enjoy, especially around the holidays, but not only.
This is my absolute No.1 favourite feel good film of all time about a lonely girl who lives with her pretty little pet cat.Lucy is single, has no siblings & has parents who've passed away. She lives alone with her cat, works holidays & feels a wee bit lonely around Christmas while decorating her Christmas tree. She passes her time thinking about her dad,eating dinner with her cat,negotiating with her boss, attending Christmas parties , being set up by her downstairs neighbour-cum-landlord with his cocky,mouth-breather of a son ( the very sweet , Joe Fusco Jr. ) & secretly mooning after daily train commuter, the well dressed ,rich Peter Callaghan from her token booth.Things change for Lucy on Christmas when she saves Peter from the train tracks on which he's fallen. At the hospital ,Peter is in a coma & she's mistaken as his fiancee. Before she can clarify, she is enveloped by Peter's loving, talkative family & she succumbs reluctantly at first & later willingly ,to the warm embrace of being part of a large,quirky family once again- a farce she carries on partly at Sauls ( Peter's godfather ) behest & mostly because of her emotional connection with not just the family, but to Peters brother, Jack ( Bill Pullman ) - who is at first,suspicious of Lucy supposedly being his polished,urbane brother's ,scruffy girlfriend ; but finds himself drawn to her & gets familiar with her quirks ( about florence, her unstamped passport etc ) & quietly falls in love with her.Its all smooth sailing after that, till Lucy & Peters wedding date is finalized when Peter wakes up from his coma & believes he has amnesia. Jack refuses to acknowledge his feelings for Lucy,believing her to be his brothers intended , putting Lucy in a fix. Whom does Lucy marry to end her lonely existence & who finally takes her to Florence, fulfilling her dreams ?A slow paced, pleasant ,romantic comedy. 9/10.
It's a screw-ball romantic comedy worthy of all of the heritage of the genre.Having said that, it's also a pleasant antidote to war porn masquerading as "high art" and to actual porn, because it's a wonderful reflection on the importance of kindness in the world.Sandra Bullock is delightful, 'natch. Bill Pullman is enchanting, and Peter Gallagher is... engaging... as a man in a coma.Watch this is you just want to find a speck of decency in a scary world.
This movie is your typical chick flick where a poor woman explains why she's marrying a stranger (she doesn't love) by saying at least she'll get a holiday and she won't be alone anymore. That last bit thrown in there because women can't be alone apparently. They need to marry someone even if they're the brother of the person they love. Meanwhile, the single bloke she's marrying is sleeping with a married woman behind her husband's back. Charming. Hard to like any of them really.
