..Tom Cruise??? Like.. dead ringer.

Other thoughts: wow the other love interest guy was sooo cute.

Maxine and her husband were way too young to be playing the older married couple. Seriously wtf was up with that?

The ending was so poorly done. Why did she have to dump him in front of his parents????? Who does that??? And why would other love interest guy boldly approach her right in front of her fiancé and his parents? Could he have sent the bus boy after her with a message to meet him in the lobby or gotten her attention from behind a Christmas tree or something???? anything????? It was almost as though the ending was super rushed. They could've done a lot better at accelerating the beginning (being stuck in Buffalo dragged on for waaayyy too long for no good reason..) to give themselves more time for the wrap up. Besides, I think it would've been a lot more natural to have it unfold like that anyway. The good looking guy was just assuming she'd follow him out?? Give me a break.

I do see a resemblance to a young Tom. It's funny how he looks much younger than her, and the girl who played Dylan's old girl friend, looked more like his daughter! lol!

I felt bad for the fiancee! Dumping him right in front of his parents! And we are supposed to be rooting for her at end?

It's okay that he looked younger than her. Couples don't always date within their age groups. However, the "older married couple" were like 5 years older than Candace, so that was weird. They both needed to be older. I don't mind a 39 year old playing a bride-to-be, in fact I think it's great, but it's almost as though they assumed she looked 28..and she doesn't. She looks good, but not that young.

Yes, we are! Because I think Paige did the right thing. She fell in love with the right guy and dumped the wrong guy.

Yeah . . . I saw this movie last year and I'm looking at it again, and I still can't believe Maxine and Frank are supposed to be so much older than Paige and Dylan. They should have cast much older actors.

I also think it's disgusting that Dylan's brother started dating Dylan's girlfriend. That's not cute or funny. Dylan should write off Bryce for life!

When the fiance's father said, "I like that girl," his mother give him a look saying "But she just humiliated our son on this joyous holiday with some bullshit about some guy who rented her an SUV back in Buffalo."
