Alex & Emma review

This is a classic romantic comedy with the boy-meets-girl-boy-looses-girl-boy-gets -girl-back scenario. But it presents an interesting twist with a series of "flashbacks"that tell the story of the two lovers. Both Wilson (Alex, et al.) and Hudson (Emma, et al.) contrast nicely in their performances - one an uptight dogmatist, the other a free-style personality who seems to worry about life only when it becomes threatened. Each is allowed to display the breadth of their talents by playing different characters. Only the final scene is somewhat weak. The story offered a much better alternative to the way in which the characters could have been re-united. But thoroughly enjoyable.
