If I were a casting director, I would never, ever put Jennifer Aniston together with Aaron Eckhart. Seriously. Where’s the fire, the spark? Oh, but life isn’t like that, you say! Newsflash: this is Hollywood – possibly the furthest away you can get from real life, so I demand more spark!Instead this love story (about a widower finding his way back to love) fizzles out before its even been ignited. And while we’re on the subject of fizzling, let’s just take a moment to consider Jennifer Aniston’s waning career. Just how many times can you play exactly the same cutesy character before you become that character? No wonder she has no love life to speak of.
Okay so maybe I’m too cynical. The movie’s not that bad, but it is bland. And predictable. And a bit of a snooze-fest. And that’s my attempt at trying to make the love happen.
Rating: 3 outta 5.
