What a terrific movie! Amy Adams and Matthew Goode had such chemistry and I loved their playful interaction!
The basic premise is that Amy wants to get married and is under the idea that she can go to Ireland where her boyfriend is at a conference and propose on Feb 29, leap year. Due to plane trouble, the plane lands a ways from Dublin and she hires a driver, Matthew Goode, to drive her to Dublin. Their adventures, flirting and fighting are what make this a must see movie.
The scenery, the Irish music, dancing and accents make for good viewing.
Amy did an excellent job and I think this is her best performance ever. While not Oscar calibre, it is a very enjoyable and fun movie.
We did notice one error during the movie and studios are supposed to have a continuity person on staff to review this. When she gets to the train station and has 3 hours to kill, apparently she checked her luggage, but the next scene has her without her purse. What women goes out without her purse, especially since her character is all dolled up with high heels and a dress all the time? Somebody should have caught that!
I'll give Leap Year 4.5 out of 5 stars. Great job!
