When a 19th century man, Leopold (Hugh Jackman), goes forward in time, and meets a 21st century business woman (Meg Ryan). She thinks he is an actor, and he can't comprehend women in pants. However, they learn to love each other and the times they were each born in. Although the plot was a clever idea and has a great male lead, this movie falls flat. I was bored watching it and was constantly annoyed by Kate (Ryan). I don't particularly enjoy Meg Ryan's performances to begin with, and Kate was whiney and stereotypical. Hugh Jackman was a disappointment, although I think he couldn't do anything else with the script, as he was wide eyed and clueless for most of the movie.
This is the movie equivalent of a beach book; not very good, but it doesn't take any effort to watch it.
Rated PG-13
2 stars out of 5
