How
is this for a tag line "a new comedy about giving first
love a second chance", oh how sweet. Sorry have we not
seen a thousand variations on that one before.
What
is wrong with this Movie is exactly that, we've seen it all
before. But even though we are often quite happy to sit and
watch pretty much something we have seen before as long as
they try and find a new angle on it, or the script is funny
or clever or witty or intelligent. Sorry but its pretty workmanlike.
I
won't be ruining anything for you by telling you that the
story is basically guy goes out with girl. Split up. Get back
together. And that is pretty much all to this Movie. If you
had already seen the trailer then you would have seen everything
you would need to know everything about this Movie. And that
is no recommendation that everything that this Movie covers
can be slotted perfectly into a 3 minute trailer.

Its
such a shame that this movie is so pedestrian with such promising
talent in Freddie Prinze Jr and Julia Styles who have been
very watchable in their previous movies such as American Pie
and 10 Things I hate about you. I must admit when I read that
they were both in this then I did expect a bit more.
If
you have never seen a teenage love movie before then yes you
will probably enjoy this. If you have don't bother as there
is nothing in here that hasn't been done before.
