Not good

The first half of the movie was alright. It was kind of cute and quirky. But then I think they just lost direction and weren't sure how to wrap up the movie because it just got worse and worse. Some of the plot points weren't ever explained and seemed wildly unrealistic or confusing. The characters were unlikeable and absurd. The flow seemed very jumpy, possibly attributed to a poor editing job. There were way too many viewer assumptions and leaps of logic that were necessary to even make the plot coherent. The producers mentioned it took them five years to complete, maybe they just got tired of trying to make a good film. It really was a waste of time.

Great movie

I bought this movie on DVD. I really enjoyed it. I think the leads were great as well as the supporting cast. I love the scenes in the diner because it really shows how guys behave. They are interested in women but also dessert. The two friends from work are awesome and great comic relief. They both cried like true friends during the conclusion of the movie and it was touching. I expect to see great things from them in the future. I grew up in Miami and enjoyed seeing some places where I lived, worked and socialized. It was a nice testament to the fact that it is hard to find love in Miami but nice people but will find each other.

Even Cynthia couldn't save this one!

The movie is pretty bad, but it does feature the highly talented and enigmatic star Cynthia Morani. Just the chance to see her for a few minutes on screen makes purchasing this movie a must do.

The depth and intensity she brought to the part of Chad's mom rivals some of Meryl' Streep's best work. Unfortunately, she's unable to save an otherwise bland romantic comedy.

The script needed a lot more work and some of the framing of the shots was amateurish.

Realistically, though the only thing that could have saved this movie would have been I'd the director could have somehow convinced Ms. Morani to have taken on one of the lead roles...I guess their budget wouldn't permit it.

what a bad movie!

I am a huge Krista Allen fan, and I recently bought this on DVD from the UK after reading a good review of it on this site. After getting it, my wife and I watched it together, and I have to say that both of us thought it was really bad. The acting was poor, the writing was bad, and the whole experience was a waste of time. The only thing that was good in this movie was that Krista Allen was hot (although her accent didn't seem very Italian). I think I would have been much happier downloading some screen shots of Krista, and skipping the terrible experience of watching a movie that should on be shown on Cinemax late night or USA up all night.

What a bad movie!

early morning TV movie "filler"

Like most movies on TV, esp. in the morning, this was just a "filler" to take up space. However, there were NO external reviews on IMDb!! Is any movie that terrible? the movie was kind of silly, teeny bopper stuff that might be appreciated by ditsy pre-teens trapped in a hospital room. The guys were eye candy, alright, but no real acting, dialogue or plot involved. I think that the IMDb guidelines dictating a minimum of 10 lines is cruel and unusual punishment, so I'm filling up the space in my comment with that brilliant observation. Let's see, I still have two more lines to go to meet that silly requirement, and ---now I think my comment can be officially approved by the Poobahs at IMDb. No wonder they don't get the hundreds of comments that they should get on a site like this!!

Trivia
When filming the scene where the van goes in the water, the crew had to hire a helicopter to look at the water to make sure no manatees were present. It turned out that manatee do not like noise and the noise from the film crew was enough to keep them away anyway.

Goofs
When Aunt Isabella enters Tiara's room to tell her she is going back to Italy and to pack her things. She is seen working out on a Nautilus machine and weights can be heard clanging together though no weights are shown on the machine when she stands up.
