I am not inclined to wax very long on this movie(for lack of time and somewhat for lack of necessity) but I still feel it was quite an entertaining movie. Good enough that I would happily watch it repeatedly... though, that is not necessarily saying very much.
First, the good: The story was fairly unpredictable and the setup was somewhat unique. I enjoyed the oddity of the hero's position within the context he found himself in. The acting was never lacking. The action was reasonably solid. There were a couple or so semi-surprising moments.
Then, the bad: The pace was a little off here and there. Mr. Carter had a somewhat fast change of heart considering his basically minimal interaction with the girl. Basically, we did not really get to see their relationship develop very much considering the level of commitment they end at.
All around I have to say it was pretty much as good as I was hoping it would be... and then some. The characters and humor were a bit higher-quality than I was expecting. It sets itself up for a fine sequel, though, considering the box office take I am thinking it probably will not get a chance to run a second leg.
Rating this one I think I will post:

A fun time, indeed!
