A Duke's son (Hugh Jackman) from the 19th century ends up in modern New York and falls in love with Meg Ryan.

Sigh. When will I ever learn?
Law of the universe: NOTHING with Meg Ryan in it is EVER romantic. Funny, yes, but not romantic.

This was just silly. The two guys, Meg's Ryan's actor-wannabe brother, and her ex, Stuart, were pretty good, interesting characters, but Meg and Hugh were just going through the motions.

Reality police:

  1. Not even a scientifically savvy inventor would be able to adjust so well to 21st century New York
  2. He couldn't possibly marry Meg Ryan in the end when the whole point of him getting married was to save the family finances...

Skip this one. If you want romance rent The Princess Bride or some Jane Austen again.
