Overview
On a flight from Los Angeles to New York, Oliver and Emily make a connection, only to decide that they are poorly suited to be together. Over the next seven years, however, they are reunited time and time again, they go from being acquaintances to close friends to ... lovers?
Make no mistake about it – whatever good qualities this movie has is due completely to Amanda Peete. Sure, Ashton Kutcher plays a perfect nerd – he is that nerd throughout the movie. It is the changes in Peete’s character that give this movie even one iota of worth. I think this movie could have been better if they did a better job delineating the instances when they were going to leave each other again. We’ve seen all of this done much better in When Harry Met Sally, of course.
