Win...155 unspoiled minutes of your life by not watching this super-annoying movie!

Warning: Spoilers
So if you ask me what's good about this movie I can only tell you that I hadn't figured it out yet. Maybe the story could have some potential if it got a new screenplay, set of characters etc. You get the idea. Not much good to tell.

On the flip side, if you ask me what's bad about this movie, I have a whole list of things. But I will only focus on one point - the characters. And I don't mean the actors - or rather - I don't know if I have actors in mind as well, because the characters themselves and their lines were so terrible, it overshadowed the actors' performance. Total eclipse of talent, if there was any to start with.

Here's a quick character overview so you get the gist of it: The main female character - Rosalee - is so dull, I even thought her best friend could be in the lead, for what was like the first 5 minutes of the movie.

Cathy - Rosalee's best friend. Annoying, annoying, annoying. Fangirl of the title character, Ted Hamiltion. And FANGIRL do I mean! Hearing her overly exalted lines made me have a spasm attack inside, every time she opened her mouth. Whoever wrote that & thought it could be relatable? Or even believable? Tad Hamilton - a tool,but a nice tool. At least he tried. A celebrity and Rosalee's prime love interest.

Pete - Rosalee's best friend, who also happens to be secretly in love with her & my MAIN VOMIT GENERATOR in this movie. This character is a disgrace for every underdog lover in every romcom movie ever created. Chauvinist & treating his love interest like his property, he always knew better what she needed & wasn't shy to tell he what exactly she had to do with her v-card (& was very explicit about that, too). He basically felt entitled to tell the girl of his dreams where she could and couldn't go, with whom and when, as well as harass her life, while still being a coward too much to tell her his actual feelings for her. Not that it changes anything, because when he finally tells the unsuspecting poor thing, after who knows how many years of cowardice, he expects her to dump her current beau and move to another state with him ON THE SPOT. Is that supposed to be romantic, cause I'm getting more like psychotic? If I ever met a guy like him in real life I would steer clear of him & possibly report him a stalker. This character literally made me pause the movie after each scene he appeared in, for like 15 mins, so I could cool off and forget I ever watched him.

I only finished the movie because I was down with pneumonia for 3 weeks and was dying for something I haven't seen before. But I tell you - even then it was a BIG FAT NO.
