While working at a beach house one summer, six guys come across a message from a dream girl, Eriko, which instructs them to meet her again at the beach house on Christmas Eve. Not addressed to anyone in specific, each of the guys immediately assume the message was meant for them. When all six of them meet up at the beach house, Eriko is nowhere in sight and the six conclude that they're meant to fight for her affection as they start a ridiculous battle for the elusive Eriko.

Reviews
As the synopsis states, it's a story about six men who worked together at a summer beach bar. One day they come across a letter from their dream girl Eriko. The letter isn't addressed to anyone in particular, but asks if the recipient would meet her at the beach bar on Christmas Eve. As it turns out, they all show up at the beach bar on Christmas Eve. Though they are surprised to see the other guys.
Some parts were funny but the acting was mediocre and so was the story. It lacked in so many things. Most of the movie takes place in the beach bar/shack where the guys debate about who loves Eriko more and who should be with Eriko. And then, out of nowhere a lawyer comes and orders them to tear up the shack since it is illegal but ends up joining them in this debate for Eriko.
And you hardly get to see Erika Toda in the movie except for the flashback scenes. It would have been better had it been told in a different way and in a different setting.
I was expecting a lot because the cast was very good, but I am really disappointed.
Overall score: 5/10
