Review: Saw this with my mom. As it kind of as you can say, is a chick flick! And that the movie, for girls that like eye candy like Josh Duhmael, who is more than the Transformers franchise. And ex-Greys Anatomy Katherine Heigel, who can surpass Julia Roberts as the queen of romantic comedies if she chooses her material right.

They play Holly, a type-A caterer that runs her gourmet desserts business and Eric, a laid-back bachelor and sports director, who is a ladies man. Their date, set up by their respected mutual friends, doesnt go off as well. As it ends before it even begins. As both dislike one another with passion and that is only the beginning to come.

Their friends who are, married to one another, have a baby and ask Holly and Eric to become godparents. Only two things both of them have in common. Loving the baby girl named Sophia and hating one another. But unexpectedly, their friends die in a car wreck.

The movie then really begins as both do not know that they are named the legal guardians should something ever happened to the parents. Which they are forced to live together and most of all, work together for the good of Sophia. Despite their dislike of one another.

As it is very rocky at first, which you would expect in any movie. But as, they learn to grow to learn to help Sophia. Taking better care of her. Falling more and more in love with her while running their professional lives. Plus Holly is beginning a romance with a pediatrician, played by Josh Lucas. And Eric still is at his, womanizing ways but that may change due to being with Holly. And vice versa! It is a cute movie for those that like date night movies. And those that love the chick flick films. While it wont win any awards, You will not be disappointed.
