I wanted to see this movie so bad when it came to theaters, I just never got around to it. So when I saw it at the store I knew I just had to watch it. Luckily my dad was with me and bought it for himself and my mom, and he was kind enough to let us borrow it. And I am so glad I did!
I thought this was a great movie. Jessica Biel and Gerard Butler are amazing in these roles. I sometimes forget what a great actress she is, but I was reminded by her amazing job in this movie. The two leads were not the only big stars of this cast. Dennis Quaid, Catherine Zeta Jones, and Uma Therman are all in this movie and all do a great job. The movie in a nutshell is about a father who used to be a professional soccer player who fell in love and had a son with Stacy. George screwed up this relationship after their son was born and Stacy moved herself and Louis back to the States from Europe. Now, years later George wants to set things right with not just Louis but Stacy as well. He hits a few snags on the way, but when you feel that way about someone you always will.
I don't think this movie is for everyone; I know that there will be a few people who think it's a little dull. It's a long movie and doesn't move very fast, and if you are not a parent you won't get some of the main points of this movie, but for those who are parents (or better yet, divorced parents) you will appreciate this movie. Or you'll be one of the others who love it, like me. It shows that even when things are hard you have to learn to sacrifice for the ones you love the most. It is a very sweet movie and the best part was the wonderful acting and the happy ending. You should try it out. It's a great movie that is funny and sweet.
I hope everyone has had a great week, I am so tired; I am going to head to bed. Have a great Friday everyone!
