The
French title for this film is L’amacoeur.
Alex, his sister and her husband are employed by a rich father to stop the wedding of his daughter.
This is their line of business but in this case they just have ten days
to do this job. They only accept
jobs to break up couples and only if the woman of the couple is not happy. Alex charms them and they see that
there is someone out in the dating world that is better than the person they
are with. Alex makes himself
unavailable so the woman doesn’t fall in love with him.
Is
this a film or a romance novel with a racy cover? Just mildly entertaining and there are too many angles thrown
in, if you don’t like one, maybe you will like another? The ending can be guessed
right from the beginning so no surprises there! 3* (This movie is OK)
