A film reminiscent of "When Harry Meets Sally" can be regarded as the freshest and sweetest romantic movie of 2008. Compared with ordinary romance films, the story in this film is interesting: through the way the father tells his daughter about his three emotional experiences, it cleverly brings a layer of suspense. According to the little sunshine girl Abigail in the film, this is A story of love and suspense. In the process of guessing who the "mother" is, the audience is easily absorbed into the protagonist's emotions. The three heroines of the film are also very appropriate: Elizabeth Banks’ dignity and grace, Rachel Weitz’s charming self-confidence; of course, it is still the coquettish and frank Azshara Fisher who is the most dazzling. The actor's few dialogues, especially the two smoking scenes in the game, are full of wit and lightness. Another outstanding feature of the film is the combination of the male protagonist’s experience in politics and growth with the choice of love, making these three loves not only a game where you love me and I don’t love you, but also full of the taste of life: the male protagonist is like Pursuing love as much as pursuing politics, and finally found out-there is no definite perfection, only possible truth.
