Not only is this painful to watch, but it also makes it look like any single, shy woman is one half-step away from being a crazy, desperate stalker. Sandra Bullock, why? I know Bradley Cooper's hot, but really, it was one date (including the most awkward quasi-sex scene I've ever seen and yes, that includes Ben and Brynn from Big Love and James McAvoy and Kerry Condon from The Last Station) and it didn't go so well. Even in the end, when she becomes the accidental hero (of course), she's still not likeable. Or sympathetic. In a romantic comedy, the audience has to at least not hate the female lead. Otherwise, the movie falls flat, just like this.
My Netflix rating: 2 stars
