Perfect Opposites (2004)

Waste of time

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

The acting in this movie is really good.

Julia (Piper Perabo) is a fetching college student with a host of admirers and big dreams of a career. Enter Drew. He is a law student and from the minute he sees Julia, he chases her relentlessly. When he finally captures her, Drew convinces Julia to move cross country with him to California. He has good job prospects. However, she has to give up a nice career opportunity in Chicago. Despite the fact that she has only known him two months, Julia agrees to the move. But, will it be love everlasting or will there be complications? This would be a good movie to recommend to anyone who is on the verge of rushing into a relationship. Julia and Drew are genuinely in love, they believe, yet their love is definitely tested, by other relatives, by job choices, by attractive co-workers, etc. The two stars are beautiful people and this fact adds much to the film's enjoyment. Also, the film features the most darling DOG ever put on screen and a charming little apartment setting, complete with flamingo decor. No, the movie is not perfect. Yet, for those who love the tales of romance and are forever searching for a new one, this is a good addition. Because, yes, the film is perfect for a cozy evening in the dead of winter. Cook up the hot chocolate and wrap yourself in this story as well as a suitable afghan.

This movie is the second one I watch with Piper Perabo. The first movie I watched with her was Coyote Ugly ,wich was also in my opinion, the best movie she made,specially compared with ''A Piece of My Heart'', which she is actually ''weak''. I didn't like very much ''A Piece of My Heart'' also because I don't like very much predictable endings, and when Julia says to Drew in the end of the movie that she got divorce I already knew she would end up being with him again. I thought that Julia's character was too good to stay with Drew,a guy who was so much malleable and susceptible to make wrong choices. The good thing about this movie, is to show some of the real problems and discussions that we do have in a serious relationship(specially between men and women) and starts to make our lives complicated.

this movie wasn't the greatest most spectacular movie I've ever seen, however it does have that certain hopeless romantic predictability one feels like watching sometimes. it's one of those movies u can sit and watch on a lazy Sunday morning when nothing else is on. overall, it was cute even though u know what's going to happen, but it's one of those movies u watch and think wow if only it was real life. the story was pretty much inevitable but it was cute, the clichés thrown in got a little much at some points, but they did have to do with the story so I guess they were okay. Overall Piper Perabo is a much better actress and doesn't need to do made for TV movie but if it's one of those days when u don't feel like getting out of your pajamas this movie is for u.

Recently at the movies, there hasn't been a lot of GOOD romantic comedies without either being 1) cheesy and predictable, or 2) sappy and not funny. A Piece of my Heart (aka My Last First Date) not only has some great scenes about the 'truth of dating', it also provides some comical fillers and connections between the lives of all the characters. Based from the play 'Heart', this script had many truthful analogies about what each sex is thinking. It covers both sides of a relationship (Martin Henderson and Piper Perabo) and then gains more insight from the friends watching the relationship. This movie is brutally honest and I believe that EVERYONE who goes to see this movie will say (at least once), 'That's happened to me before'. Finally, it's a good romantic comedy since last year.
