Advantages: A good storyline and great acting! Disadvantages: Erm none...!
Not my normal kind of film, I wasn't too impressed when my husband put it on, and made me sit down and watch it with him, but seeing as I had just made him watch PS I love you, it was only fair...and I must say although I was aprehensive, I was impressed with this film, and found that I actually liked it.

Now people seem to have mixed reactions to this film, some love it and some hate it, its understandable, but for me it was simply genius, it was like the closest ...
