Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for romantics and anyone who wants a laugh. If you loved Barefoot in the Park or It Happened One Night, start here.
The mood
Light and funny, romantic.
The pace
Breezy, at 1 hr 28 min.
What might put you off
Rated PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.

A nutty inventor, his frustrated wife, a philosopher cousin, his much younger fiancée, a randy doctor, and a free-thinking nurse spend a summer weekend in and around a stunning - and possibly magical - country house.
