disgusting, overrated, pointless

I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Rachel McAdams is a class act, able to mix Comedy and Drama effortlessly, so this film is good because it allows her to be able to show off both sides.This isn't the best film she's ever made, it falls into too many cliché's but it is an engaging story with a lot of heart behind it.Her chemistry with Channing Tatum is a pleasant surprise and he himself shows that he is able to show much more emotion than I had seen previous.There are lots of 'friend' characters who don't add much but when McAdams and Tatum are in scenes together this becomes better than the run of the mill rom-com.

First off, slightly disappointed by movie. Expected another IF ONLY (Jennifer Love Hewitt)*, and this it sure ain't. I don't know why, 'cause Rachel gives a fine performance, so it's nothing wrong at her side. But something lacks. I got totally caught up in the aforementioned title, and that one's a weepy, and I can get really emotional too, but this one didn't bring the same reaction.*Okay, that one is something completely different, but this movie was advocated to me by someone who enjoyed IF ONLY as well, both these titles are intensely emotional, they are in the same class.Am amazed by the callousness of some people. Listening to the Director's Commentary, I especially noted that he mentioned that he guarded against Paige sounding bitchy. That it should be clear that her emotional turmoil comes from her uncertainty. But there are actually people out here on the Board Comments who do not understand the severity of Paige's trauma. Hell, guys, her recent memory's wiped out, and now she has to go home with a guy she doesn't remember. Of course she would be edgy. But notice how she keeps apologizing. Clearly still every bit the very nice girl. Like I said, nothing wrong with Rachel's performance. And she's more than darling!Also mentioned on the Director's Commentary is that Rachel has one of the warmest smiles in Hollywood. Genuine. And, yes, the most exhilarating factor about this movie, is Rachel's lovely face, those soulful (blue?) eyes, the pearly-white teeth, but more than the beauty, the radiantly affectionate features. She is huggable to the highest degree, and that's putting it mildly. My favorite scene is that bit where they are at the lake, and when she's uncertain about what's going to be expected of her, because sex is definitely not on the cards yet.One terrible complaint about the DVD: Guys, you whet our appetites with the lovely full-screen menu design, but then the movie hits the screen only in letterbox format, and all that glorious detail in close-up is lost. While wide-screen versions are essential, please give us the added luxury of full-screen as well. Just look at that menu page and see how drab the same scenes appear by comparison. And I'm not just talking about the frolicking-in-the-lake sequence. I am super-hooked on her charming face! From the moment I saw the menu page!Very nice movie. Ultra-nice actress. Good script. Nice try. Ain't love grand?

This movie was so confusing. The beginning is wonderful and beautiful. It makes you laugh. Then the world comes crashing down and it's heart-wrenching. I loved it and hated it all at the same time. I kept wishing she would be more understanding and willing to try. Leo (Channing Tatum) was working so hard and being so patient, but she would get flustered and stamp her foot and run away. It was frustrating to watch Paige (Rachel McAdams) turn him away and try to go back to her old life, something comfortable. She didn't seem to listen to the doctor and try to regain her memory. She was afraid of her life and the unknown. I was glad that it ended with them starting again, but after all that she put him through, I was angry with it. The ending wasn't enough. It left me wanting more. I wanted a scene or to at the end to jump ahead in time and show them together. Granted, it shows a picture of the real couple with two kids, but it wasn't enough. I rate it a 7/10 because it was a good enough movie with excellent actors to bring out all these emotions in me. I was able to feel the happiness and anger and sadness that you should be able to feel while watching any movie. It was excellent and terrible all in one. Excellent because the story was wonderfully handled. Terrible because the story was frustrating.

I cant believe that I sat for two hours through this dreadful bland script tripe premise and lacklustre performances. The only reason I watched it was for the promise of a shot at McCaddams butt in pink knickers as seen in the previews but even that was fleeting. This movie gives the viewer nothing to work with, you don't feel sad when they wont get back together (I secretly hoped they didn't just so it would be different)You don't feel happy when they do (sort of) get back together. You don't exactly hate the parents and well basically the whole movie is just a littler Meh! Glad it was on free-to-air because even putting up with the TV ads was paying too much!!
