Before long he has become hopelessly infatuated with her, but there is a reason why she won't let him get close, as Jamie is about to discover.

Great Love Story
Brilliantly acted. Bit predictable, but well filmed enjoyable love story. Good entertainment and really worth the watch. Lots of messages in there if you really want to start looking. I loved it for what it was , certainly something you can watch and enjoy more than once. Highly Recommended

A wonderful movie about the reality of the human condition.
I saw this again today, after having seen it when it was first released; and, being a little older, and a little more world weary, made it even more poignant than the first time around. This isn't your average romcom; it's about us; we, as people whom often live our lives not really understanding or even seeing what our lives are really about, until someone shows you, you.The human condition is painful, and complex, and often the reality of it is hidden by the daily BS we wade through; unthinking and blind, but Maggie is one of those rare characters that can see right through it all.If this film doesn't make a person pause and think about thier life, and those less fortunate that are all around us, then I think there is something fundamentally wrong with them as a person.I feel pity for those reviewers whom only gave it 1 star "waiting for something to happen" because that's probably how thier lives are, and it's only at the end credits of their lives that they will realise, too late, what this film, and thier lives, was about.

OK, but a little lack-lustre near the end...
What starts off promising rom-com turns a bit lack-lustre near the end. Enjoyable, but also very heavy! Would recommend, but again make sure you're willing to go the 'long haul' to get to the end as most would get a little bored at places. Very funny in other places though thanks to Jake Gyllenhaal

A brilliant film to make people more aware of the problems some people have to suffer.
The film is brilliantly produced and directed, and acting of the whole cast, especially Make and Anne have responded to the director and made into a 10 star film. Enjoy.

I enjoyed the connections between the characters
I enjoyed the connections between the characters. Diving into how people think and react under certain scenarios. It made me laugh and cry, tut and cry again. It makes you think about how you can accomplish anything in life if you put your mind to it but what really matters the money or what your heart desires not your head. I watched it twice.

just not funny
Problem was it wasn't funny, certainly not a fraction as funny as it thought it was - amazed at how good many of the reviews. Both stars tried hard hard - too hard - and that too was part of the problem
