It Had To Be You (2000) 7/10

Starring : Natasha Henstridge, Michael Vartan, Michael Rispoli, Olivia d’Abo
Director : Steven Feder
Running Time : 97 mins

Struggling author Charlie Hudson (Vartan) is left to plan his wedding when his fiancée is too busy with work to attend. He meets Anna Penn (Henstridge), who is also planning her wedding, and the two develop a coincidental filled relationship that leads to them questioning their upcoming nuptials.

This could have been better, but it actually wasn’t that bad. This movie predates Vartan starring alongside Jennifer Garner in Alias, and comes after Henstridge made a name for herself as a sex obsessed alien, so that cast is a little odd, but they work pretty well. The story line could have been tighter, and some of the scenes didn’t feel necessary, but all in all it was pure innocent fun that ended on a high note without making either of the main characters out to be the bad guy.
