Don't let unromantic critics scare you away
I am a David Tennant fan and now a Kelly MacDonald fan. This is a lovely romantic comedy that focuses on characters caught in a delightful dilemma. This is the type of role that Tennant does with such ease - giving depth to his character making it easy to see how two women would fall in love with him. Kelly MacDonald is down to earth and human like the rest of us. Making it even better is the fact that David's fiance is someone you also like - in fact there isn't a character to dislike - so no stress! Buy it, pop some popcorn, relax and enjoy - I've watched it twice already - I bought it region 2 from Amazon UK when it was released in England.
Caught Off Guard by the Charm!
Admittedly, the only reason I got this film was to see David Tennant outside of the DOCTOR WHO realm. My expectations were low and so imagine my utter surprise when I found myself completely drawn in by this wonderful little comedy! The plot is pretty simple, but this film is so much more enjoyable because the writing is great and the actors are far more fun to watch than the standard American romantic comedy leads. Because the dialogue is delivered by actors who inhabit their character as opposed to actresses trying to pose as thespians, this film has a lot of heart going for it. And even though it's somewhat predictable, you cannot help but be entertained. No need to give you any plot points, but if you're a David Tennant fan, then you'll enjoy the film. If you like comedies that are not bombastic in their approach, then you'll be smitten. If you like excellent dialogue and quarky characters, then you might just fall in love with the film. Not the greatest story ever todl, but DECOY...
'Freaking AWESOME! A Must for David Tennant Fans!
I've just watched this movie one and three-fourths times in a row (all D.T. scenes), and then I went back and watched my favorite scenes again, twice. I jumped on the opportunity to see this movie in the US since I'm a die-hard David Tennant fan, and where do we get this much screen time with him lately? This was even better than I expected, and I'd recommend it as a good romp to anyone, fan of David Tennant or no. Best ten bucks ever spent! Enjoy!
