Jini-B This movie was on my radar for some time and it managed to do a rom-com's job. It was entertaining and had some funny moments. The lead actors had an easy chemistry and their banter was fun to watch. Most importantly, I was invested in the story from the get go.Anna (Amy Adams) has planned to propose to her boyfriend of 4 years. She has planned the proposal at Dublin, Ireland, where according to Irish customs, it is good luck for a woman to propose to a man on Leap Day. As she journeys from America to Ireland, where her boyfriend is attending a conference, she runs into bad luck when bad weather conditions put a damper on her plans. She finds herself in a bar where she meets Declan (Matthew Goode), who ultimately agrees to take her to Dublin by road, for a price. A black cat crosses her path before she begins her journey and villagers notify her that it would bring bad luck, but she continues on her path. Well, apparently the villagers were right. They got into trouble at almost every step.Amy Adams does the role of a neurotic best. She seemed to fit into the character's shoes so comfortably. Her frustrations with travelling to Dublin were rendered even funnier with her facial expressions. Matthew Goode was also quite good in his role as a cynic. Their chemistry was very fluid and real.The backdrop was absolutely breathtaking and the supporting characters enriched the film furthermore. The dialogue was crisp and witty and the comedy of errors, really engaging. Suspension of belief is a big requirement for this film since a lot of the events are slightly improbable, but overall, this was a good one-time watch. I enjoyed it a lot.

kateozxx This is one of if not the finest modern romantic movie, given the remarkable traditional Irish hospitality, glorious pictures, fascinating music and heart touching performance. It reveals the dark side of the human nature, greediness and selfishness, as well as the bright side, that is the beauty of true love. Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it. Especially Richard Corliss from the Time magazine. Things that matter most must never be at the mercy of things that matter least.

Nuno Cunha Perhaps I haven't seen so many romantic comedies to feel like this is just another one, but I enjoyed the movie: it has funny moments and the characters seem well construct. So what if you know from the beginning those two would be together? You see them in the cover, you know it is classified has a romantic comedy so you pretty much know how its going to end.Usually, after I watched a movie, I come to IMDb to see reviews made by other users, specially the hated ones. I realized that this movie has some inaccuracies about Ireland, which in my opinion downgrades the movie.

Prismark10 Amy Adams plays a go getter who heads for Dublin in order to get her cardiologist boyfriend (Adam Scott) to accept her wedding proposal by scheduling it on leap day. The reason being he cannot refuse due to the tradition of the country (which is false by the way). She gets detoured as her plane gets diverted and has to find her way to Dublin where she meets grumpy innkeeper Matthew Goode.The film is unfunny, full of stereotypical and non believable characters, even the scenery looks poor as a lot of its bad green screen.As a romantic comedy it fails. You feel little appeal for Adams character and I found Goode's curmudgeon to be off putting as well. No wonder Goode has washed his hands off the film and I expected better from Adams who may I remind you is a five time Oscar nominee.
