When Anna's (Amy Adams) four-year anniversary to her boyfriend passes without an engagement ring, she decides to take matters into her own hands. Inspired by an Irish tradition that allows women to propose to men on Leap Day, Anna follows Jeremy (Adam Scott) to Dublin to propose to him. But after landing on the wrong side of Ireland, she must enlist the help of the handsome and carefree local Declan (Matthew Goode) to get her across the country. Along the way, they discover that the road to love can take you to very unexpected places. |

 This is a great movie, I lost count how many times I've watched it September 3, 2010
Dyana Alvarez
This is an excellent movie. Whoever said that romantic comedies are supposed to be unpredictable, please! Also the people saying how come it's rated so high, well that's becuase the movie is excellent NOT because Amy Adams is in it. People don't need to align with your taste in movies, you know. Also, I know a lot of people who love this movie like I do and we couldn't care less about Amy Adams. Speaking of leading actors in this movie, Matthew Goode is yummy. He is very cute and very attractive and his personality is great in this movie. I'd leave a reluctant, workoholic doctor any time for a carefree, sweet, and good cook like Declan.
Watch it if you're a romantic at heart!!!
One thing they should have put a prettier leading lady.
I also wished they had more background on Declan. The fact that his heart was broken previously is not enough.
And the soundtrack is incredible too. I love all the music in it and I am a heavy metal fan!

 Stale, old, and predictable -- irish scenery only redeeming quality. August 24, 2010

The beautiful Irish scenery stole the show and was the only redeeming quality to the awkward acting/script/editing?. But this genre of love-story/comedy is not only over-done -- but has been done much better. Stick-up-her-caboose control freak heroine thinks she wants to be married to her rich cardiologist long-term, live-in doting-but-unromantic boyfriend -- but instead falls in love with the emo-broken-hearted-rude-mocking-but-still-kind-hearted-on-the-inside-hot bar keeper. There was poor character & story development---the denouement was rushed and unexplained. The love-interest bar-keeper went from being on the cusp of losing his pub/inn in a tiny town with no buses/trains/few residents/reliable electricity to suddenly having a pub/restaurant that's PACKED with loyal patrons who empty their pockets to allow him to repay his loan (or something like that I guess...details details, so inconvenient!)
Then suddenly they are kissing passionately in front of a breath-taking cliff-overlooking the ocean view.
The other thing that I thought was laughable was Amy Adams' character supposedly walking & hiking for "hours" even days in her 6" heels. Lol...if her ankles had been dripping in blood, it would have been more believable. What a joke.

 Nice Escape August 12, 2010

1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Even though this movie went unnoticed in the theaters it did provide a nice escape from the dull-drums of daily life. yes, the story line is not that original; but I was not expecting to watch something on the scale of Out of Africa. It is your basic rom-com that entertains. I definitely think Amy Adams does a terrific job in her role and she definitely makes the movie. She has an amazing ability in playing these parts without making the character seem too "cutesy." The added bonus is the cinematography of Ireland; definitely makes for an amazing video tavel brochure. So don't over analyze the script or the storyline; just sit back and enjoy the ride.
