Perfect cast and a good story

Highly Overrated But Still Good

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

i saw this movie mainly because of the 2 leads on the movie. i love both of them. they have such charm and sincerity on the screen. this movie has a lot of heart. when you watch this movie, nothing about it is really new, so don't expect anything mind blowing. it's not an Oscar contender.but it's so real, the characters, the story, the human emotions, the friendship, the fear. just look at this movie as a realization of sorts. because Amy is just so afraid to live her life.this story is about a girl that follows a planned out life of her mother. somehow she feels loyal and connected to her mother through this. she convinces herself that this is what's going to make her happy. ignoring everyone else's advice.then she meets these 2 guys. peter and Daniel. Daniel is perfect for her. and in fact if peter wasn't in the picture, she surely would have ended up with him. fortunately the plan helped her out in this case. Daniel had to be the #7 boyfriend for her to end up with him. but he's just #6. so what to do? she has to follow the plan right.so she goes to peter and pretends to be his girlfriend. which works out perfectly for both of them, since peter also needs a pretend girlfriend. except now they fall for each other. they're a perfect fit. a complement to each other. the problem is he's #6.Amy then finally figures out that her mother's plan was just a guide. not something literal for her to follow. so in the end she follows her heart. peter really pushes her to do this. and yes they end up together.all in all 8/10 for the great actors and the tingling feeling it leaves you.

This was a good movie about a more than captivating story. About a lawyer, a bagel guy and finding true love, the movie is definitely one worth watching. Good for people that think they've struck out on love and not necessairly open to anything. It just made me feel that I'm not completely alone in having a timeline and a seemingly crazy prospectus. Really worth watching.

I seem to remember Kimberly Williams in The 10th Kingdom which was good and Patrick Dempsey in Can't Buy Me Love which was ok too, but this movie... it lacked development, as many "cram into a two hour spot" movies do, but if you don't have anything to watch on tv, you might as well turn this on. Even though pieces of the plot may be missing from time to time, its a generally cute story of a girl who tries to follow her life strictly set by her dying mother before she dies.

I didn't begin this movie with high expectations, but I was quickly won over. Unlike most movies where the young woman has to choose between an obviously wrong choice and the man of her dreams, both men in this movie had something to offer her. And being a big fan of Patrick Dempsey, I couldn't resist! Well worth the watch...
