    Your Opinions and Comments

    7 / 10
    A fun (but not funny) movie to watch with your significant other. It deals with the best thing life as human beings has to offer - love.
    Although the script is not Oscar material, this is a lovely movie and Freddie Prinze Jr. and Julia Stiles do a good job.
    The video transfer is good. There are no compression signs and the colors are very vivid.
    The DD 5.1 soundtrack is ok. The surrounds are hardly ever used, but that`s appropriate for this kind of a movie.
    The menus are all static. They are poorly designed and it is difficult to navigate through them since you cannot tell where the "cursor" is.
    The extras include a music video and a very short behind the scenes look.
    Bottom line - a nice love story, told in a hip way.
