so i watched this last night at a film festival and i wasn't quite sure what to expect. i've never been wowed by anything Here! network so i had my reservations. and the plot early off sounds like a "my best friends wedding" remake, and while the similarities are striking, there is such a twist to the story.
the actors work well with each other, especially amber benson and jane cho who both have small but memorable characters.
what most impressed me was how the plot would so often veer towards a predictable movie moment, and either a twist was put in, or a re-interpretation of the situation that kept it fresh. (like when alex finally finds out...). while a few critics have written it off as too light and unbelievable, i really think this is one of the better gay movies i have seen recently.
