Less a lot like love than a lot like When Harry Met Sally... |

...a charming--albeit drawn-out--love story that squeezes a lifetime's worth of Before Sunrises and Before Sunsets into 107 minutes. |

Even if you profess a deep like for Amanda Peet (I do) and Ashton Kutcher (the jury's still out), seven years of them is a bit much. |

...a lot like a romantic comedy, except that all that's keeping these two kids apart is the trivially insufferable movie they're in. |

This is a story about the on-and-off romance of a young man and woman over several years. Why don't they just settle down with each other and save us all 107 minutes? |
