I have always hated Meg Ryan, but I was willing to overlook this for Hugh Jackman. Mistake!This movie was terrible. Although the whole romance/comedy/fantasy combo could have worked, even with some scientifically sketchy time travel, it just didn't. I can't really explain it, but the time travel thing just didn't click. For instance, Jackman was very convincing about not understanding the 20th century at first, but by the end of the "day," it was as if he'd always been there. No sense.
Also, the chemistry between Ryan and Jackman was nonexistent. She seemed to have more with Schreiber, who was playing her ex. In fact, the interaction between Jackman and Schreiber created what little enjoyment I found in the flick.
Meg Ryan is an awful actress and the writing for this film was awful. That is a fatal combination. Sorry, Hugh.
Rating: 2.0
