An average movie

Nowadays, I have Netflix and Popcorn and not only I have since then an endless selection of movies to choose from but, as a result, I have become slightly more picky regarding the movies I watch. Before, I used to watch pretty much anything as long as it was starring one or two actors I was interested in and, as a result, I would sometimes end up watching some really obscure features. This movie was a perfect example. To be honest, I didn't expect much from the damned thing and, indeed, it was one of those quirky indie romantic comedies with a ridiculous premise (this time, the big idea was that, if they don't fall in love within 28 days, they will kill themselves…). On the positive side, I must say that Eric Schaeffer was not bad at all and his character was the only thing I actually enjoyed, even though his obsession with his neighbour was rather annoying and ridiculous. Sarah Jessica Parker, before becoming Carrie Bradshaw for ever, was not bad actually but I couldn't stand her character who was so obnoxious and condescending. You also had Ben Stiller showing up in one of his clueless characters but I never thought his gimmick was really funny whatsoever. To conclude, the whole thing was pretty weak and without Schaeffer, I would have given it an even lower rating. Anyway, it is not really worth a look.
