There barely was enough development of the character's relationships, there was too much time jumping going on, half...

Full Review Overall Grade: D+ Story: C- Acting: C Direction: D+ Visuals: C Most over-rated movie of the decade by geraldg (movies profile) (Jul 4, 2008) 14 of 19 people found this review helpful I like sweeping romatic movies- but this was just flat and pathetic. The movie begins reasonably, though the character of the younger sister is ridiculous- she presents a...
