That's weird. I'm sure that When Harry Met Sally had been made already. And didn't it used to be funny? Go to Full Review Stella Papamichael BBC.com 06/21/2005

Although not as scathingly funny as the Ryan-Crystal classic, director Nigel Cole offers an engaging romance infused with the warmth and optimism of his previous films Calendar Girls and Saving Grace. Go to Full Review Sara Michelle Fetters MovieFreak.com 04/30/2005

It is an utterly irresistible collection of amorous vignettes, held together by Nigel Cole's (Calendar Girls) confident direction and the ferociously captivating charms of actress Peet. Go to Full Review Eddie Harrison The List 04/24/2019

Although A Lot Like Love is advertised like a generic teen comedy, its failure to provide [Ashton Kutcher] with his fourth consecutive U.S. number one reflects the film's avoidance of pratfall-style gags in favor of slushy romantic sentiment.

This grueling, training-wheel romance comedy covers a six year stretch of time in which Generation Y boy toy Oliver Martin (Ashton Kutcher) slowly realizes that he can't wait for his life plans to gel before committing to his affection for his narcissist Go to Full Review Jim Lane Sacramento News & Review 08/07/2008

thiago s @Thiagostone Mar 26 Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, o filme tem cenas de romance fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é mais ou menos e ninguém melhora o filme, os personagens sao fracos, e faltou muitas cenas para o filme ser bom. See more Carlos T 01/28/2025 Filme: De Repente Amor Assistido: Elenco: @aplusk @amanda.peet @kathrynhahn_brasil @kalpenn @alilarter @tygiordano @tarynmanning Modelo: #romance #comedia Duração: 1h 47m Ano: 2005 Minha opinião: Um filme romântico nota 10. Sentimos a química entre Oliver (Kutcher) e Emily (Peet). Onde temos Emily uma garota pirada e Oliver um cara mais tímido, onde se conhecem por acaso e sendo Emily mais espontânea. Onde vivem um dia divertido e inusitado para Oliver, onde Emily vai tirando fotos. Os anos passam e o destino junta eles de novo, e em cada reencontro era a crise de romance de um. E assim o destino deixa eles se cruzarem, mas depois anos e anos, reencontram novamente e onde Emily iria se confessar, mas acha que Oliver irá se casar e em ultimo ato vai até o casamento, mas não era de Oliver e sim de sua irmã. E Vivem felizes para sempre. Mas a construção do roteiro e enredo são muito bem feito. E acaba nos cativando. Com boas atuações dos atores e sua química faz deste filme um ícone. Roteiro e enredo parabéns. Vale apena assistir? Sim com certeza em casal. Nota: 10 See more Ava V 12/09/2024 Stupidest "love story" I have ever seen......please don't waste your time with this garbage See more Mark R 12/03/2024 I personally really enjoyed this movie. I see people being very critical of this movie and it is very “when Harry met sally”esque but the actors really feel like they have a lot of chemistry. The dialogue feels really good, comforting, and cutesy with their playful banter. Like all rom coms it can be overly sappy with all the classic roadblocks but still worth it. See more Laura B @Elenaferrante 11/03/2024 2024. Its dated but simply sweet. Dialogue is good and Ashton and Amanda both carry their leads. Weird, but her teeth bug me. Its enjoyable and easy. See more Daryl D @DmacVisuals 10/16/2024 Gotta make more romcoms like these. See more Read all reviews
