Rated PG for sensuality and language. Cast: Amy Adams, Matthew Goode, Adam Scott and John Lithgow Directed by: Anand Tucker Written by: Harry Elfont & Deborah Kaplan Amy Adams and Matthew Goode star in LEAP YEAR, a romantic comedy that follows one woman’s determined quest to get married to the perfect guy…despite what fate has in store for her. When their four-year anniversary passes without a marriage proposal, Anna (Amy Adams) decides to take matters into her own hands. Investing in an Irish tradition that allows women to propose to men on February 29th, Anna decides to follow her boyfriend Jeremy (Adam Scott) to Dublin and get down on one knee herself. But airplanes, weather and fate leave Anna stranded on the other side of Ireland, and she must enlist the help of handsome and surly Declan (Matthew Goode) to get her across the country. As Anna and Declan bicker across the Emerald Isle, they discover that the road to love can take you to very unexpected places.

Amy Adams is very, very pretty and so is Matthew Goode. Shallow is as shallow does and the story here is a bit throwaway. Successful girl who’s looking for perfect can’t seem to get her guy to commit (he’s just not that into you, honey), so she stalks him to propose to him on February 29th in, how convenient, Dublin, Ireland. We have a woman who does the French Kiss/Romancing the Stone version of going to Ireland to get her man. We get to see a lot of beautiful Irish countryside and a very good looking pub owner who has to schlep her through said beautiful countryside. She hasn’t a clue how to pack and for everything she goes through to get the guy, she should have at least taken a pair of flats or walking shoes. Begorra, she’s not bright. Anyway, this is a rental, if that much. Rating: 2 Shillelaghs
