As a visual fan of Amanda Seyfried as I am sure are many, many red blooded male film goers I watched this movie with few expectations other than the above.

I was delightfully surprised by a very enjoyable film about finding lost love after many years. You could sort of pick the plot as it went along and there were some distinctly fairy-tale elements at work, much in the style of Hollywood Musicals of years gone by.

If like me you believe that films should not always be about super serious, reality, but rather make you feel a bit better than your own miserable life, this is the film for you. After having just seen Seyfried in Lovelace this was a very different film, but then I remember her almost on key singing from Mama Mia which had a lot of the same sparkly glazed view of love.

Of course if you are a woman, you will absolutely adore this film and rave about it to your friends for days afterwards…Guys watch it with your girlfriend and she will love you for it and its ok if you enjoy it a bit too (the film I mean..).
