I watch alot movies, so I need somewhere to write what I think, for future references. I generally forget 50% of all movies I've seen, so this is also a reminder for me :O

Short synopsis of the film: Ruben, a man who's afraid of risk, but makes a living analyzing risk is dumped by his wife on their honeymoon. Going home alone, he soon meets Polly, who's afraid of committing to anything, yet he falls in love with her and starts a relationship with her. Then his wife comes home, and wants them to be together again. What will he do? Will he run back to the safe marriage to his wife, despite her dumping him, or will he take a chance with the woman he loves?

Not knowing what to expect, this film didn't surprise me at all. We've all seen this kind of boy meets girl a million times. They date, but complications arise, and will they wind up being together at the end? Of course they are. This is a standard Hollywood mass-production romantic comedy. Nothing new.

The best scene was at the beach, when the couple is approached by the nude scuba-diver with a horrible hilarious french accent, otherwise it was pretty standard stuff. Ben does what Ben does best, playing the geeky male, and Jen is the love interest. It's a bit far-fetched that they would actually fall for eachother, but hey, it's love. Don't expect to laugh too much, as there are only a few laughs in the entire movie. It's not gonna be a classic by any means.

Rating: 4/10
