Have you ever listened to a soundtrack before seeing a movie? Well, I did that with this movie and completely fell in love with it and came to memorize and sing the songs whenever I could. So, could the movie be as great as the soundtrack for it? Would the performances match the quality of the songs?
Romantic comedies are all handicapped by the same thing, predictability. You know the girl will be heartbroken, turn bitterly against all men, and then slowly realize that her true love is the one she’s overlooked time and time again, and “Someone Like You” is no different…
You won’t normally see this come out of ToC as I can typically find some positive aspects to a movie, but this was one of the WORST movies I have ever seen…and I need to warn you about it.
The performance and likability of little movie star Abigail Breslin is what made this movie watchable. If this movie didn’t have her in it, I wouldn’t have thought twice about seeing it. Aside from Abigail’s performance, this was just another romantic comedy that failed to ignite any real romance…or comedy for that matter.
