ComédieRomance

Twentysomething Alan (Gleeson) is down on his luck. Stood up at the altar and recently fired from his banking job, he finds himself working with his mother as a part-time tourist advisor at Dublin Airport. It's there he comes face to face with first love Alice (Paré), stuck on standby for a flight home to New York. Their summer romance ended eight years previously with Alan promising to return to the US one day. He never did, and they haven't spoken since. Seizing his chance, Alan convinces a reluctant Alice to stay one more night in Dublin. Over the course of an unforgettable evening, they might just realise that they are more compatible than ever. But time is running out on this brief encounter. When does an unexpected second chance, become the one you've always been wanting?

Alan is at a bit of a low point in his life. He was jilted at the altar, he works in Tourist Information at Dublin Airport – with his mum - and he still lives with his divorced father. He is in a band that is so unsuccessful that they are considering giving up music altogether and just being a Weddings band. Then on Valentine's Day a beautiful American rocks up to his desk looking for a hotel as her flight to the Big Apple has been held up and she is now on a stand by for the next flight home. He has always held a soft spot for her and so chances his arm and invites her out for a 'night to remember' in the fair city of Dublin. Now this ticks all the boxes in terms of plot ingredients and we have a very inclusive night of entertainment with as much thrown into the mix as is humanly possible- to say what that is though would spoil all the surprises. There are quite a few laughs here but some are a tad too bleedin' obvious and haters of stereo types will point at the far too many on show here making this a bit of a cliché central. However, it is still a really nice film and Brian Gleeson (son of Brendan) is really likable as the down at luck Alan. His muse in the shape of Jessica Pare ('Mad Men') is both enchanting and vulnerable in equal measure. I really like Dublin and as a backdrop it works really well, but this keeps itself firmly in the realm of rom com, so if you like that you will not be disappointed; if you yearn for gritty realism and despise clichés then do not even consider this one – I for one quite enjoyed it.

I find this movie might have been underrated. Perhaps critics sometimes confuse simplicity and fidelity to the purposes of a genre, with limitations. A genre, in this case romantic, is necessarily limited in its scope and predictable; but those are not shortcomings, but merits of a genre, as classic tragedies and comedies show. To me it was a very good romantic movie, neat, elegant and charming. Classic. I watched it twice and the second time I enjoyed it even more; to me is a good sign that the film will stand the pass of time very well.

I had high hopes for this movie as the trailer had potential but alas I'm smiling at how bad this movie was put together as a whole. Don't get me wrong I love a bit of cheesiness but this movie, I just couldn't buy. First of all, the two romantic leads are not very believable as a couple, a bit hard to put them together lets just say. Some of the airport settings do not exist in the airport, and the way the airline is portrayed as is hilariously bad. The continuity is all over the place for where Alan and his Dad live. Alice is for some reason in Dublin and stuck on 'standby' for a flight to New York, who just so happens to not get on her flight so spends the night with Alan. They must of started their night at 5 pm drinking as they ended up getting a kebab in Zaytoon's after going for a meal, a drink, a bike ride, a rooftop view, a wedding reception, a gay night, then a house party. They of course just happen to end up in bed together and are running late for her flight that she is in not such of a rush to catch. Of course you can guess what happens in the end. Shows Dublin in a pretty light but thats about all this has going for it. Wait for the DVD.....and then only if you're bored...and female.
