Good movie, but fizzled at the end.
Normally I can't stand romantic comedies, but every now and then one comes along that steps outside the lines. This was the most recent one to do so for me. I really liked the dialogue through most of this movie (the monopoly line was priceless), but the last ten minutes degenerated into chick flick cliche and I was really disappointed. The whole sappy speech/apology/reconciliation and then the bit with lucy running down the street after george and the "leaping embrace" were just awful. it's so disappointing when unique movies give up before the finish line.
