Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among anyone in the mood for a love story and anyone who wants a laugh, this one's for you. Good for nights when you want to switch off and laugh. Liked Big? This is a good next one.
The mood
Funny with heart, romantic.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 55 min.
What might put you off
Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
