To Have and to Hold

Love a guy, leave a guy, find a new guy, leave a new guy, find an old guy, love an old guy...it never gets old, you can't see the forest for the trees, you can't see what right there in front of you. Did I mention that EC is an easy 10'er?

In the beginning of the movie when she is carrying the caterers tray. There is only one bowl of tuna appetizer while holding a conversation it switches from two bowls of tuna then back to one bowl of tuna all in the same scene and back to two bowls.

Primarily. I think everybody who gave it a good review must have confused it with another film Secondarily.

I watched it in a UK Channel Five crime series screened in the matinee slot. After fifty minutes of tedium. I was still waiting for the murder. It never happened.

Instead I was bombarded by inane vacuous philosophical yawp. Spoken by wooden characters. Who firmly believed we live forever and can have everything.

Oh dear. Are some people in for a rude awakening ? One hundred years ago. Only a short time relatively. Our forebears felt they were lucky to be alive, valued each day given to them and counted their blessings. No matter how terrible any of their lives might have appeared. They just thanked God for it and never complained this stupid film seems to perpetrate a myth which if believed will inevitably result in impressionable souls being seduced by a total fiction If you live in the real world as I do. Ignore this fairy tale.

No! No psycho. This was actually a romcom. I agree with another reviewer. I thought I had accidentally recorded a Hallmark movie. I hate Hallmark movies. But this was a pretty good movie. Normal, if you know what I mean. I kept waiting for someone to become all psycho but it never happened. It was about love, marriage, friendship and adultery, without a psycho.

The cast is good. Everyone's character is believable. The acting is above average. The storyline is a little slow but it keeps you entertained.

Why on earth did sweet, wholesome Alice (Erika Christensen) think she could become one of the shiny people. She couldn't see Joe (Antonio Cupo) for who he really is. It took her so long to figure it out. How could she not have known Harry's (Andy Favreau) feelings. It was obvious throughout the entire movie. The movie ended happily. It was a hallmark movie moment.

This is barely even inspired by the actual book. How can Alice already be blonde?!?!? This movie doesn't even capture the messages or lessons of the book. What happened to Harry? So disappointed.
