Achieves the holy trinity of painful earnestness, combining cute animals, sick teenagers and an idealistic belief in love and goodness that's actually deceptively judgmental.

one of the better romantic-comedies on the market currently, but fails to avoid the same cliches that they almost always tend to include, freddie prinze jr. has lost his boyish good looks and in place all we have is a slightly attractive man, the acting done by the character opposite him is sub par and transparent. overall the movie leaves you with a feign of charm and most of its peers can't even muster that.
