i be generally more willing to be open mind about rom coms than many and but this be simply not a very good attempt . it get nothing to do with comparison with the british original have not see and and doubt i will . it have a whole lot to do with a meandering plot and lack of chemistry between the lead and a godawful performance or character from it suppose male lead ( jimmy fallon ) . fallon walk onto the screen wear the clothes and hairdo of a 15 year old and act a decade young than that . he suppose to be a teacher you see and and of course it well know that school district the world over love to hire individual less mature than the child they purport to teach . the character be so extremely disturbed and irrational that i have my doubt whether any actor could have make him likable and but old reliables like john cusack or adam sandler might have be able to give it a shot . not fallon and who be neither funny and nor an actor and but appear to think he be both . not once in the entire course of the movie do you either believe fallon in his role and or believe that there be any way these two people should and or would be together . near the end of the movie there be a scene where barrymore ( who be cute a usual but could not carry this one alone it hard to have a one person romance ) tell fallon that it over and too much have happen and and she move on . and rather than feel bad about the scene and or sorry for fallon and you be actively cheer her on finally she do what she should have do month ago . but of course the plot mechanic would not allow that to be the end of it ( an end which actually might have make a statement out of this mess ) and and instead we get to see the rational career girl throw it all away to chase after this childish idiot and encourage his delusion . it of course meant to be gooey and satisfying and but it actually make me more disgusted than anything else .
