Thoughts
This was a surprisingly good film. Well, no, let’s be clear, it’s not a good film but it was really fun and cute and Emma Roberts shines off the screen. There are plenty of plot holes and it’s all a bit silly, but if you just forget that and go with it, and if you’re in the mood for something bright and breezy, it’s absolutely perfect.
Rating: 4 / 5
