The 27-Hour Day

The premises aren't that unusual on the face of it, but they play out differently and have a fresh feel. Lauren is a workaholic and is forced to take time to slow down. Jack is trying to save the family business.

Autumn Reeser plays the workaholic a bit different than the usual. Maybe it is her combination of extreme competence combined somehow with klutziness. Andrew Walker plays someone who comes off a bit backward or maybe it's more innocent.

The two have definite chemistry and they spend plenty of screen time developing it.

There aren't many big highs or lows or surprises, but that didn't matter. I enjoyed the relationship.

The climax and ending didn't impress me. It lacked a real conflict. It seemed dragged out and included a speech that was a little preachy.
