The only reason I give a high mark is because it is such a pleasure to watch. It is easy, (simple-but-original) funny, and...easy. Lena Headey is gorgeous as usual. I wouldn't give a high praise on the acting, but overall it is good. Darren Boyd who plays Cooper is superb with his comedic dialog. It is too bad he has such a small role in the movie, which would have mad it funnier. Everything is very natural without any character trying to be funny or cool.

I never bite the idea of love at first sight or romance or anything. And this movie is certainly not for the story or strong acting. But it is very highly recommended. And did I mention Lena Headey is gorgeous?

I am never a big fan of Taiwan movie production as opposed to Korean, Hongkong or even China. Strong acting quality is hardly found in them as clearly shown in this film. I don't consider myself as hard-to-please audience as I am, in fact, a fan of indie movies. However this movie shows weak plot and slow pace. I found myself lost in the middle as to where the plot is going. The acting certainly does not make it better. Rainie's acting is sub par as she 'over-act', trying to be perky and cute. Although I have to admit she is a pleasure to look at. Isabella Leong on the other hand plays a more suitable role as a confused, sad, regretful, extremely reserved character. Overall I find this movie is a disappointment.
