Jennifer Aniston and Aaron Eckhart shine in the latest romantic movie to hit theaters.
Burke Ryan (Aaron Eckhart) is an on the rise so called Dr. Phil who helps people cope with the lose of loved ones and is in Seattle for a week to host one of his many self help group seminars in the hope's to help others along with their greiving process, but little does the group know Burke is suffering himself but hopes that he can escape his problems by helping others with theirs.
3 years prior to Burke Ryans fame he lost his wife in a tragic accident and has not been able to forgive himself for what has happened, and ends up avoiding his in-laws because he feels her death was his fault.
While in Seattle, Burke meets Eloise (Jennifer Aniston) at the hotel he is conducting his seminar. After a first meeting with Eloise, she makes it clear she wants nothing to do with him thus giving him a classic brush off, but as with all love stories they decide to overcome their dislike for each other and give it a try.
As Burke and Eloise get to know one another better, Eloise finds out why Burke has been burdened all this time and feels that she needs to help him overcome his struggles, and all the while the two start to realize that when you least expect it, love is waiting right around the corner.
There are sweet moments in this film and there are also tear jerker moments which took me by suprise. I didn't expect to get teary eyed in a film such as this. All in all this film was touching and I really enjoyed Jennifer Aniston and Aaron Eckhart in their roles.
