A made-for-TV rom-com, starring Stefanie Von Pfetten and (surprisingly) William Baldwin, as a divorced couple who reconnect as friends and decide to try and set each other up on dates. But – of course – fate has a different plan in mind for them. Utterly predictable, but not unpleasant for it. If this is a genre you enjoy and you don’t mind knowing how it will end practically as soon as it starts, this is quite an enjoyable way to spend an hour and a half. The film borrows fairly heavily from You’ve Got Mail – which in itself was a remake of The Shop Around The Corner – and it doesn’t have the star quality, or any kind of quality of those two films, but it does have a charm all of it’s own, and I quite enjoyed it on a lazy Friday night after a busy week.
