I'm disappointed that I have to give this movie such a low rating, because parts of it were amazing, and very well done.
However, I felt that this *wasn't* a romantic comedy, rather that it was a heavy-handed piece of emotional propaganda.
Sure, it's a worthy cause, but that doesn't excuse it. The least they could have done was to insert the messages subliminally! The dialogue throughout this film was beautiful, the interaction between the leads was a delight.
However, when it came to the 'taking a stand' dialogue, I found it incredibly cringe-worthy, and even had to turn off the television.
I think this was such a brilliant idea, but it was overwrought, and I'd have loved this if they'd either toned down the political message, or perhaps made is less crude.
