Ugh. Almost complete rip off of the 2006 movie; The Holiday. I wouldn't mind if it was marketed as a remake or if it was a spin off or even made out to be "based on The Holiday" but the fact that they tried to make it out like the plot was original to this film is quite sad.
There were so many aspects that made this adorable, it could have been a very good movie without the copy cat bits. However, because it was copied and I have recently seen The Holiday for the first time, I could tell how many things were rushed in order to stick to the original concept.
I personally don't mind remakes, spin offs or movies based upon another older movie, but I can't stand it when they make it out to be super original and it ends up rushed. If you want to watch a really good movie, try The Holiday; it's got feelings that are more raw and beautiful.
I wouldn't stop anyone from watching this movie, but I hope that other people will realize it's just a copied product trying to do it better.
