Totally predictable, unconvincing relationships

While not totally terrible, this movie is too formulaic and predictable, and the chemistry between the leads for the most part is nonexistent. The Irish scenery is very nice, but scenery alone cannot carry a picture. Many will compare this film with 'Made of Honor' with Patrick Dempsey, and while the overall formula is similar, the latter is a far better movie. Totally a 'chick flick' judged by the attendance at my Saturday night showing - a total of only 4 men and around 100 women. Although this was not a total waste of time, and I don't regret seeing it, it is not a movie I need to (or want to) see again.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Thoroughly Enjoyed this Movie

This movie offers a lot to like - Humor, affairs, love and love triangles, and is accompanied by heartfelt dialog, and great acting. If you liked 'Something's Gotta Give" or "Sleepless in Seattle", you will love this one, as it's much the same, but far funnier than both. There were imes when the audience was laughing so hard, you couldn't hear the next dialog - and there were LOTS of those times. I definite 'feel good' movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Thoroughly Entertaining

A perfect mix of humor, mystery, romance, action, and above all a 'buddy flick'. The new twist on Holmes as a scrappy action hero as well as a little bit nutsy genius is a most welcome invention. While I agree with some of the other reviewers about the mumbled dialog being hard to understand, I was thoroughly entertained, and can hardly wait for the sequels which are written all over the ending....
Yes, I recommend this movie.
