Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Great movie to watch, when feeling romantic. Keane Reeves at his best although the timeshift plot a little hard to understand at first
Confusing from beginning to end. I know this is supposed to be romantic, but I just didn't feel anything. Nothing about this silly premise makes any sense. Not even Bullock or Reeves can save this senseless, unexplained film. Highly disappointing
Pefrect for a slow, quiet winter evening.It could've been a lovely Christmas movie, one of the best actually, but the final result is just another St. Valentine's one. St. Valentine's Day is an artificially made up holiday for me anyways and I personally do not celebrate it. If you love someone you love them and show it to them year round, every single day, not just on holidays.Now imagine - pristine snow, the lake house, a chimney, smoke going out of the chimney, qietly and peacefully falling snow, a Christmas tree inside or outside the house, 2 people on something soft and warm in front of the fireplace, cuddling , 2 glasses of wine, cooking together, looking into the eyes of each other, candles on top of the fireplace and/or around the house, Christmas lights around the windows and/or around the house, (eventually having a bath together), dancing slowly, a bit of kissing, ... did I say looking into the eyes of each other?... oh, yeah!.... that's a romantic setting for me.All actors' performances were pretty good. The guy who played Keanu's brother was really cute too and could've had a bit more significance/presence in the movie. There could've been some development between Mona and Shawn ; they seem cuite cute together. Good acting, all of therm, at least in my opinion. The slow dance together (Keanu and Sandra B.) was quite sensual. I really liked it; so warm and moving. Really romantic.A movie with a great potential, not realized.
I love and respect Keanu, i follow him as well. Movie is awesome beautiful story , beautiful movie ,Sandra is just awesome, acting is superb.The leaves , the breeze and the lake house with snow ,so romantic with a tragic ending .But the movie started from where it ended.Beautiful song ,overall the movie is very nice ,one should watch this movie.
