A young American woman plans to travel to Dublin, Ireland to propose marriage to her boyfriend on Leap Day, because, according to Irish tradition, a man who receives a marriage proposal on a leap day must accept it.
Surprisingly entertaining and likeable romantic comedy (remake of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's 1945 "I Know Where I'm Going") effectively set in the Irish landscape and the two leads do a good job.
Maltin*1/2: "Charm-free romantic comedy brings out the worst in everyone involved. Even the usually appealing Amy Adams is off-putting...Try to imagine what IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT might have been like if Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert had little charisma and no chemistry."
