The two leads had great chemistry. The movie got off to a slow start, but as the competition progressed, it picked up the pace. I liked how this was written, which is the first time in a while. They played off each other well and it was nice to see the chemistry build as the couple got reacquainted.
I do have to complain about the 'almost kisses' - there were 2 of them - and completely unnecessary for a couple who had been together for 15 years. There should have been no anticipation or build up to a kiss.
They'd supposedly been together for a decade and a half, why would anyone anticipation be necessary? And even though they were originally going to break up, where the kisses were written in the script would be natural for any couple. So to have people walk in, a car horn honk at them, shouldn't have phased a long-time couple in the least - that is just a 'Hallmark habit' that needs to be retired. This was a decent script and the actors were great. Seeing Jonathan Bennett in a lead role was refreshing, and long overdue. He's a talented actor and is often under-utilized in best friend and brother roles. Brooke D'Orsay was fantastic as always, and they both made the roles believable. It was a feel-good movie and I would definitely watch it again....
