Great little charmer. But avoid the sequels like a bad Christmas sweater

I think you need to like romantic comedies to enjoy this movie, and that eliminates a lot of guys who tolerate Rom-Coms for the sake of their ladies. And I wonder if they hadn't chosen the actors and actresses for the dozen or so lead and supporting roles so well, this film would have been more of a stinker. But they procured a fine ensemble cast and that keeps the smell down to a bare minimum.

There are awkward, cringe-worthy moments that don't make me giggle as they are supposed to - too much gray in my hair, perh... lees de rest.
