Predictiable.....
So the trailers showed a funny if somewhat predictable movie about guy who falls for his best friend only to realize it a bit too late...sound familair? Going into the theatre I had a somewhat skeptical mindest, convinced that it would be nothing but a regurgiation of old jokes and dialouge but was pleasantly surprised by funny one liner quipps and the hilariously awkward situations Patrick Dempsey's character finds himself. Even though the writing of the dialouge was amusing, the overall plot and characters themselves were as predicitable as I originally believed. Womanizing Boy has Good girl, boy looses girl, girl has reservations about new boy, new boy and old boy fight, attraction between girl and old boy, boy makes last attempt to get girl back, predictable ending. The only saving grace, for me anyways, was listing to Kevin McKidd's lovely Scottish brouge and images of my beloved Scotland. If you are looking for another predictable, amusing rom- com, this is your movie.
