Why it’s a Sunday Safe Bet
It earned strong reviews (89% on Rotten Tomatoes), though it had a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz. A safe bet when you want something reliable.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of anyone who's survived a family wedding and anyone who loves a will-they-won't-they. Relationships are put under a microscope, for better or worse. More of a critics' pick than a crowd-pleaser: worth it if you like something a little different.
- The mood
- Light and funny, romantic.
- The pace
- Breezy, at 1 hr 42 min.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG-13. Probably too much for younger kids.
- Audiences were cooler on it than critics.
- Skip it if romance makes you roll your eyes.
On the surface, Clara Barron seems to have it all: a job as an OB-GYN; a great house in LA; and a loving family. But, the one thing Clara doesn't have figured out is her love life. Pressured by a family wedding in Mexico, Clara asks a co-worker to pose as her boyfriend for the weekend festivities,- only to be caught by surprise when her ex- boyfriend (and family favorite) suddenly shows up after disappearing from her life completely. Torn, Clara must decide between going back to the past or open her heart to new and unexpected possibilities.
