Great Film overall

Good concept, poorly executed.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This movie is a definite cheesy formulaic romantic comedy. The biggest drawback is the acting, which is sometimes wooden and forced. In general not that great. On the plus side, the cinematography is good. Shot on location in California, it looks like a professional job (as opposed to your neighbor filming with the new camcorder). As for the plot, well as a formulaic movie it is exactly what you expect, but if you like Romantic comedies would you really want it any other way?? In general I would describe this movie like "Taming of the Shrew" meets "A Million to Juan" meets "Beauty and the Beast." My wife and I rented it from the dollar section of our local video rental store. It is an OK way to pass two hours, but I wouldn't buy the video.

The movie's a light romantic comedy. So how deep can the script really get? The story is harmless, and the humor is sweet, simple, and steady. The low budget only adds to the charm. They find some nice locals and have a simple but effective soundtrack.The cast is familiar and gets the job done. It is more interesting to watch Laura Harring try on a different role than to see Hugh Grant once again reprise his "usual" character in another equally implausible romantic comedy. It is satisfying to get more smiles and laughs from a film that has far less budget and star power than the weak "You, Me, and Dupree".It's worth the watch because it's what you expect...with a little more.

With it's 7.2 rating here on IMDB, I decided to watch this movie. However, I would give it 4/10. The script is pretty cheesy and at some moments I kept on thinking to myself, nobody in real life would actually do something like that. A lot of the time, I found the acting to reflect the script. I definitely won't recommend for anyone to put themselves through this movie unless they are just looking for a cute movie. This isn't a high quality movie in the least, it's just cute.

Poor cast, predictable story, bad audio, horrible wardrobe, appalling direction...it could not stink more. My eight-year-old son can do better with a cheap video camera. Avoid this turkey at all costs.Major pet peeves: everyone mumbles and the stupid annoying fake moustache.
