Don't watch it unless you're
1) An Australian or just love the Australian accent
2) Like romantic comedies which only can get you to smile and not laugh.
3) An older folk.
This is the first time I've ever seen an Australian production. Oh, how boring, how old fashion it is.
The film starts off well in a clubbing scene, where two guys try to pick girls up. One of the girls, Alice, who finally got attached with Jim, only gets to receive a Commitment ring instead of a proposal for marriage. She was from London and stayed with him in Australia for a year and 3 months and only gets that ring. He has never once said I Love you to her before. So, on his birthday, when he gave her the commitment ring, she decides to break up and make plans to return to London. He was so devastated that he slept in a dwarf's car. Not only that, he was clumsy enough to crash it back and forth at its parking lot. The dwarf, obviously only played by Peter Dinklage, decides to politely invited him to his home for coffee to get the cops over. However, Jim managed to touch the dwarf's soft spot by asking him about the beautiful letter to Francesca, who is a model.
When the police arrived and decides to do a walk about in the house, when the dwarf, Charlie, declared that it was empty, the police found Jim even though Charlie repeated aloud. "I've got nothing to HIDE". This was trying to get Jim to hide. But he didn't and Charlie make up by saying actually they are gay.
Jim tries to get Charlie to write for him a letter to Alice. But Charlie refuses and says it has to come from his own and one day when he copied Charlie's letter and presented it to Alice, Alice thought it was good at first but when question him about it, she realized he copied.
Charlie and Blake, Jim's good friend work it out to try and get Alice back till the very last minute. Blake, got a cab drive to drive really slowly on the way to the airport and even take a piss half way at the bushes and stopped at a certain bridge where Alice saw Jim, rolling down a banner saying I love you too. Alice was touched and decided to marry Jim. Other stuff helped when Charlie brought Alice all the scraps of torn letters that Jim tries to write.
In the end, Charlie died, but he get to fulfill his dream of meeting Francesca in person.
One funny scene:
Jim was having a war with words in a bar with some guys and Charlie came in. And the guys said, "I thought you would bring a little help with you but you came to offer a help to the little". Hahaha.
Anyway if you're bored reading my story its because, the plot is sooo boring. Only watch if you have xtra cash or time to spend. 2.5/5
