An enthusiastic 8! I AM that nerd, and I recognized each step of my own growth in the lessons of Brooke for Eric. When I finally met my eventual wife, the script covers why and how we fell in love. No lessons though on the four kids, the 45 years, and other significances that follow. Perhaps Hallmark has more to teach me?
Brooke is not as beautiful as many Hallmark female leads, and the nerdish character of Eric is initially off-putting, so I dialed back my expectations after meeting the leads. However, the script drew me back as I saw my own awakening replayed and the growth of the characters to parallel my own self-awareness.
I recommend this movie,and guys - even if no one elbows your ribs, you could do worse than to pay attention. Do not just tell everyone what you learned - SHOW them!
