Part of Dastardly Difficult December: film nr.19
Let's do an in depth analysis of the romantic comedy genre, shall we?
At its very essence this derives its nominature from two seperate entities that complement and give shape to its intrinsic being. To exemplify, it must pertain to elements of mirth related to various amouresque elements, often reflecting on our species' need for emotive connection and the sensation of reciprocal and/or pheromone producing love, being either free or bound within the confines of a relationship, said relationship in itself again defined by a subset of artistic axioms, co existing both in the imaginary and the secular planes of existence. The proportions in which these elements exist are variable and highly dependent on the artistic joie de vivre and inherent mindset of the creator.
This has nothing. It is shit. And it is boring.It is boring shit.
And just look at that poster.
He knows it.

Wow. This was phenomenally boring. I guess that's why it was on television at 10pm on a Saturday. (Making myself sound super cool right now.) Was hoping for a silly little rom com on a lazy evening, but this was just tres, tres bad. Even the adorable Amy Adams couldn't save it.
-
Completely uninteresting. Amy Adams and Matthew Goode have zero chemistry and the story for the first 30 minutes almost made me turn off the movie.

It was cute. There were moments when I chuckled. The irish guy and Amy Adams were adorble. The douchebag brother from Step-Brothers was still a douchebag. It wasn't great but it was exactly what I expected.

Si acabas perdido en la Europa más rural te puede pasar como al protagonista de Calvaire y pasarlo un poco mal al convertirte en el oscuro objeto de deseo de una tropa de garrulos algo faltos de caricias. Leap Year ("Tenías que ser tú" es el intercambiable título en español) nos enseña que, por suerte, la endogamia en Irlanda ha acabado por producir tipos atractivos que saben conjuntar su vestimenta y carecen de parafilias escalofriantes. O al menos en la película no se muestra ninguna.
Así que ya sabes. Si quieres hacer turismo rural: Bélgica, no; Irlanda, sí. -
Me encantó, la vi hace mucho tiempo pero es de mis favoritas, sobre todo por los paisajes de Irlanda, son hermosos.

Esta peli abre el debate: Si me gusta, ¿es buena? Estoy convencida... de que no. Es mala. Pero quiero ir a Irlanda y quiero encontrarme a un tabernero así de guaperas que termine jurándome amor eterno frente a un acantilado.

Even for a sunday-girl-movie incredible dumb.
Two stars just for the Ireland-things! -
Sadly unoriginal, but Adams and Goode brought some charme to the whole thing.

"Amy Adams is beautiful & good as always, this may be one of the very few forgettable films i've seen her in but she damn barely saves it."
-
Not very good. But Amy Adams is hot. So watch it.
-
Cliches abound and work against it, but it has its charms and I never can resist Amy Adams no matter how bad the project might be.

Sweet cliché :) Great chemistry between Amy and Matthew.
