The movie can be considered a "so bad it's good" movie.The plot is a poor attempt at trying to be like The Quiet Man.For example, it shows there's a train station near Ballycarbery Castle, however in reality there isn't a train station anywhere nearby. What easily could be a 4-hour drive turns into 2 days. Too many obstacles that make their trip longer to prolong the plot.Unnecessary and unfunny slapstick and jokes just to get the audience to chuckle a bit.Forced and non-matching chemistry between the two characters: she's self-centered and pretentious and he's an asshole, yet after two days they fall in love.The film's depiction of Ireland is 100% inaccurate.
