Featured review
Sandra Bullock and Ben Affleck star in this romantic comedy. Ben (Affleck) gets stranded in New York when his plane skids out of control, the trouble is he is getting married in 2 days and his only way back seems to be a ride with a free-spirited traveller called Sarah (Bullock)
The duo get into lots of trouble on their road trip and the results are pretty amusing. Affleck and Bullock both provide nice performances without ever excelling in the roles, the screenplay is nicely written and the direction is nice also.
Basically it's a nice movie, with enough humour and charm to entertain, but it will never be a classic. 6/10

- TriviaIn a scene early in the movie, the two leads are shown sitting in an outdoor location in front of a large rusty globe. This location is in the city of Savannah, although the two characters have not reached Savannah by that point of the story.
- GoofsWhen Ben and Sarah get off the train they leave all their personal belongings (Ben's laptop, and Sarah's purse and luggage). Later, in the laundromat, Sarah's wallet gets stolen from her handbag, but she'd left all that on the train.
- Quotes
Ben Holmes: Quoting Bishop Jeremy Taylor, "Marriage hath in it less of beauty but more of safety, than the single life; it hath more care, but less danger, it is more merry, and more sad; it is fuller of sorrows, and fuller of joys; it lies under more burdens, but it is supported by all the strengths of love and charity, and those burdens are delightful."
