The story has ups and downs, but in my opinion it ends up being balanced, giving us a drama that keeps us entertained, without demanding too much or holding us back at the end.

This is a romantic drama that is great weekend viewing for couples or just people who like the genre, it delivers great moments and gives us a believable story.
It's still a movie we've seen before, with the right performances, nothing too risqué, effective dialogue and a romance that makes everyone happy.

The story itself is fine, and tackles an old topic: love despite the age difference. Even the romance takes its time and follows a generally believable process, albeit with some exaggerations.
