The main thing that attracted me to this film was the fact that it stared Sandra Bullock, an actress who never fails to impress me with her kooky portrayal of the endless variety of characters she plays. Her character Margaret was no exception. I was equally impressed by the performance of Ryan Reynolds in this film, my perception of him as an actor as been forever changed.

While the film may seem to fall into the generic romantic comedy stereotype, I found that it was anything but. Numerous appearances by Oscar Nuñez had me physically restraining myself from falling off my chair with laughter as did a rendition of Get Low.

This film has something for everyone, young and old, male and female. It’s definitely one of my favourite feel good movies of this year.
