lanalucyI sort of resisted seeing this one because it just seemed like it would be silly, but it came to the dollar movie and Kid wanted to see it, so what the hell.
Amanda Bynes is a very attractive young lady and portrays a young woman coming into adulthood missing the father she's always known about but never known. The interactions between her and Colin Firth are really delightful and fairly convincing. I admit I cried a couple of times. Um, yes, I am a sap. But a shallow one. See next paragraph.
For me, though, the dirty old lady that I am, this boy stole the show! He's not only really pretty, but he has a lovely, soothing (yeah, soothing, that's it) accent, and really sings (his songs appear on the soundtrack) in the movie.

And on another completely different shallow note: I watched the TNT premiere of Boomtown on Monday. I never watched this when it was on NBC just because it sounded completely confusing in the pre-season madness of new series cliff notes. It actually wasn't confusing once I was watching it, and Jason Gedrick was in it. I like to watch Jason Gedrick. That boy can run, fast, and he looks wicked cool doing it. Flat out running, looking fine, fine, fine. I might have to catch up over the summer while nothing else is on Mondays. Maybe he gets to run a lot. :}
