Overview
An accidental meeting between a man being pressured to propose to his girlfriend and a runaway bride.
On the surface this film had a nice start to it. There is a good-looking man driving down a scenic road in a sharp car. Not long after this a quirky attractive woman arrives on the scene with a story that she won’t share. And a road trip! That’s a lot of cash in the bank to start with. From there we start to see some cracks. First, the male lead is awful. I mean he is really, he is very…. wooden? I thought the female lead was the same at first but I think her accent affected some of her delivery. They weren’t helped any by the script – it just seemed difficult to have a flowing dialog and often they seemed to re-has things that they had already talked about.
There are some good things to say about the movie. While the acting may have been second-rate the scenery and look of the film is not. Also, there did seem to be real chemistry between the leads and that held my attention. I felt that the final scenes were among there best. In a genre that has been beaten to death I thought they came up with a unique ending.
