Helen Hunt had to write, direct, produce (and probably cast herself) in this movie to kiss a costar like Luke Wilson. That's why it's NOT believable. Whatever you done to yr face Helen Hunt, it's not enough. Luke Wilson is hot. I can't look when he kisses you -'it too gross'. And disappointing. Like watching someone forced to kiss an older uncool sister - NO CHEMISTRY. You can call it Ride all you want. All which will be ridden is the WAVE! Yuuuuk.

Usually not a fan of the "Dramedy" (Drama/Comedy). They are rarely pithy and often trite. However, I found this movie to be very enjoyable. The drama was not overdramatic and the comedy was always well placed. The storyline developed at an appropriate pace and I did not find myself looking at my watch wondering if this was almost over. I really, really enjoyed this movie.
