I will start by saying I have always been a Bonnie Hunt fan.... She always adds life to any character she plays, and she did a wonderful job in her directorial debut.
I have to admit this is a chick flick... But keeping that in mind, it is a wonderful story, it touches on many emotions and elicits all sorts of reactions.
This film depicts real life like people with real life like situations. (Tho I have to exclude the coincidence that is the major part of the film)
It's a love story.. not just of a man and a woman, but the love of family, friends, and loved ones past. (Even pets).
I really enjoyed it. Well worth the rental or the purchase.
