Great FIRST directorial effort!
I'm a big fan of character driven films so I really enjoyed this movie.
Yes, it does start out a little slow at the beginning, but the development and chemistry between these two characters does continue to build over the course of the film... as it should when two strangers meet for the first time.
It may be a spoiler to say that they actually DON'T end up together in the end, but I think that sensible people will appreciate the way that this story ties up with the possibility that something might possibly happen in the future. I really enjoy being able to make my own decision how the story ends up.
Very good first showing by Chris Evans as a director. Also really enjoyed the chemistry between he and Alice Eve who I also thought was great in the film. Was pleasantly surprised by the appearance of John Cullum who I'll never forget from Northern Exposure (yes I'm a kid from the 80's).
Highly recommend for the "older than the xbox live community" crowd.
