Imagine Me & You (2005)
Dreadful, awful, without any merit
Reading some of the other reviews of this film it seems you either love it or hate it.
I thought it was just awful, but I kept watching right until the end as a rabbit might remain trapped in the headlights of an oncoming juggernaut, unable to comprehend the enormity of the disaster unfolding.
It's hard to know where to begin, the screenplay was I think the main culprit, I'm really not sure a different director or cast could have rescued this.
The sentiments of the film were particularly offensive. The notion that ultimately it's not only okay to leave your husband on a "love at first sight" whim, but somehow hugely romantic and uplifting. Not to worry though, because (suicidal?) jilted husband has a quick chat with little girl and smiles again, then sits next to cute lady on plane and grins to camera. Aaaaaargh! I particularly liked the way her family reconciled themselves to the shocking news that her daughter was a lesbian and about to leave husband by jumping in the car and driving her to find her new lover.
The subject matter of the film demanded a more serious approach.
