Sweet. romantic, feel-good
28 February 2022
This movie was so sweet that it literally gave the Katie Holmes character a toothache (and myself one too).

It felt very Nicholas Sparks. But it was simple, feel-good and had enough heartwarming scenes to make me happy. It didn't require much brain power, which was what I wanted.

It focuses heavily on the law of attraction, but I didn't feel like it was too preachy. It gave some food for thought. Some scenes were over-the-top cheesy, or featured some questionable acting. But it had a big enough heart to look past most of that.

It's easy to see why this film has been panned heavily by critics, yet has more favourable reviews and feedback from regular audiences. Some aspects reminded me of Dawson's Creek - the setting, aspects of the Katie Holmes character and her love life, the storm.

The world is so damn gloomy these days, that a little positivity can't hurt. Glad I gave this a chance.
