7/10
If you take the movie seriously, you will get moved

I guess the reason why this movie gets such a low rating is it is TOO unrealistic. Who would buy a one-way ticket with all his savings just to see a girl he has met twice and slept with once? Who would parachute himself into a luxury swimming pool to meet his darling girl? Who would convert a family-owned motel into a homeless people's shelter?

Scarcely no one would do those things in real life. But it is those tiny few people that do these things that makes people believe in fairy tales.

The overall storyline is trustworthy. It's basically about a girl who makes a living in a large company, large city, doing a job against her true calling, getting back with a rich guy with who she's to have a baby. Jennifer Aniston does a good job playing a seemingly hardhearted woman. She is rather 'tense' and harsh but towards the end of the movie it gets so hilarious that she writes a poem to the hero.

We do need realistic movie that reveals the severity of life. But when we get baffled, it's not bad that we watch a chicken soup that teaches us to follow the heart.
