This is a predictable rom com, Powell and Sweeney do add chemistry and it is certainly watchable.
It's a little bit cheesey, set in a 'Mary Poppins' world where everyone seems to be financially well off and doesn't appear to work, which conveniently allows them to jet off to weddings in Australia.
But there are several genuinely funny moments and again I think it's Sweeney and Powell that really carry this. If you liked four weddings and a funeral, Notting HIll etc, You will probably enjoy 'Anyone but you'.
It is a predictable yet enjoyable rom com, obviously not to be taken too seriously.

What's good :
The acting is all very good, ably led by Hoffman.
You wouldn't think a story of people walking, could keep your interest, but it does. A good script and no surprise, being based on a Stephen King book.
It really builds up the story and the characters, as the walkers progress the miles and realise the deadly reality of what they've volunteered for.
Make up is very good, didn't recognise Mark Hamill by look or voice and Judy Greer, older and younger is utterly believable.
What's not so good We felt the ending was a bit of a let down, Not terrible by any means, The first 90% of the film was really good, so by contrast, the last 10% felt a bit , 'oh'.
Good film, solid 7/10.

The Grand Finale was more of a fond farewell than a story telling 'episode' in it's own right. A final homage to the characters that made up Downton Abbey for so many years and so many seasons and episodes.
The Grand Finale started a bit slow, but slowly built up pace, to deliver a satisfactory ending and goodbye.
I didn't think it was as good as Downton Abbey, A New Era. It certainly won't win any Oscars, but, for the fans, it did deliver a nostalgic last 'hurrah' .
