This was billed as a romantic comedy and, knowing nothing else about it, we went to see it over the holidays. I don’t think I’ve ever cried this much during a comedy, not even Talladega Nights. It really wasn’t what I was expecting at all… I was in the mood for light escapism.

Not quite as bad as when the video clerk told us that Donnie Darko was a funny movie about a teenage superhero, but bad enough.
