It´s a romantic comedy. It´s not supposed to be founded in the depths of realism. It´s supposed to be over the top, magical, colorful, romantic, and entertaining for the people (mostly women) who enjoy this genre of movie. And of course people who love romantic comedies expect a happy ending and don´t mind the fact that they know at the outset that two leads will get together. That how the genre works. Just like in an action move. The lead doesn´t die. If the lead dies it´s not an action movie anymore; it´s a drama.

So if you love romantic comedies and don´t mind subtitles, you will love this movie. If not, what in the hell are you doing going to a Romcom in the first place??? Perhaps because you were asked to review it…mmm…
