“First things first – if you havenu0026#39;t watched the trailer for this film yet, I suggest you donu0026#39;t. Unfortunately, if you have seen the trailer, youu0026#39;ve also seen most of the film, because it doesnu0026#39;t offer a great deal more.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePersonally, I had seen the trailer before seeing this, so I had a general idea of what to expect – and the film pretty much delivered on that. The whole film has a light feel, and being generally predictable throughout, youu0026#39;re never really in any doubt about the final outcome of… well, everything.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWith that said, itu0026#39;s still an enjoyable way to spend some time, and is perfect for being not-too-long. Some of the dialogue between the actors is very forced and wooden, but the performances were generally sound, if nothing special. Sarah Roemer was strong as the leading lady/love interest, and her parents were excellent the few times they were on the screen. Joseph Cross was mediocre as the main character, with his emotional scenes unemotional at best, and I think that another actor might have been able to show a bit more chemistry with a good looking millionairess.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIn all, if you happen to come across this film or are a particular fan of any of the actors, itu0026#39;s worthwhile giving it a watch. Otherwise, donu0026#39;t feel that youu0026#39;re missing out on anything that amazing – especially if youu0026#39;ve seen the trailer.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e6/10 :)”
