Love, Rosie 2014


     This movie is based on a novel written by Cecelia Ahern titled Where Rainbows End.  Rosie and Alex have been best friends since they were five years old.  It’s possible they could be right for each other and Alex wants Rosie to attend college in Boston with him.  Unfortunately, Rosie isn’t able to travel to America and she marries Greg.  Alex wonders if Greg really loves Rosie and he writes her letters but Greg doesn’t give them to her.  Rosie decides it’s time to let Greg go but just then Alex marries Bethany.
     There are a lot of times where Rosie and Alex could’ve just talked and straightened things out between them but that would be too easy?  There has to be a lot of mistakes in between before the possibility of anything going right comes along.  3* (This movie is OK)

102 min, Comedy directed by Christian Ditter with Lily Collins, Sam Claflin, Christian Cooke, Jamie Winstone, Suki Waterhouse, Tamsin Egerton, Jamie Beamish, Lorcan Cranitch, Ger Ryan.

Note:  Imdb 7.2 out of 10, 27% critic 62% audience on Rotten Tomatoes, Roger Ebert 2*.
