solid date-movie

It's odd to experience a British accent coming from Jennifer Love Hewitt after all this time and it never seems to feel comfortable for some reason in this otherwise predictable but entertaining mostly romantic comedy. The movie seems to struggle a bit in its balance between comedy and drama but its extended ending sequence is stronger than most typical romantic comedies. Ultimately this movie of mistaken identity and marital infidelity and redemption of love is a solid date-movie that is able to keep its audience's attention. The pacing is adequate, the comedy is sometimes tiltillatingly cute, the drama painful - a movie with all the basics yet without the dramatic or comedic highs and lows in a nicely mixed package of the classics.
