Come on you guys with the low ratings -- don't be so critical and snobbish. Enjoy the sweet love story and beautiful scenery of New Zealand. The village and the residents were charming. Makes you want to live there. So what if it was somewhat predictable. The lead couple was attractive and made you root for them. The story was simple, entertaining, and satisfying, with a happy ending. As for the film overall, I found it refreshing because there was no swearing and vulgarity.

Being a senior myself, I watched this, admired the acting, the sets, but felt incredibly sad at the end. What could have been.... Makes you question your decisions in life. I have not read the book, probably never will. I do like British productions so I would recommend this film for others who appreciate British films.
