Leo
Palamino (Ryan Kwanten) is a failed writer who spends his days
dishwashing while his ex-wife is a best seller writer who's fame and
book is based on why he sucks. That is until he meets Colette (Sara
Canning), the girl of his dreams... on her wedding day. So he
decides to try and steal her away from her current husband, who is
rich, popular, well connected and everything he is not. Leo tries to
show her that sometimes life's greatest beauty comes from the
unexpected and he is also the ultimate underdog, living in the shadow
of his ex-wife who became a more successful writer than he ever was
in Jeremiah Chechik's The Right Kind Of Wrong (2013), the best
attempt yet for the once promising director to make a comeback after
the twin remake disasters that still are Diabolique and The
Avengers.
Everyone
knows all his flaws (because of his wife's book) and he is the town
gossip and why women believe they are happier that they ain't stuck
with a loser man like him. Leo is an eccentric, stubborn but he
believes that life isn't about following the norm and uses all
his charms to try and win over a girl that already know all his flaws
and has rejected him on first sight, but with the help of his
friends, Colette's mother on his side will Leo be able to finally
become the underdog that finds a happy ending?
This
was a comical film, a tale where you are rooting for the underdog.
Sorta like the Prince and the Pauper fighting over the same girl.
While is it easy for a girl to choose the rich guy, it is only when
you loses everything does a person's true personality shows. In the
end, is there joy in life when everything is planned? You can own
everything when you are rich, but it doesn't mean you can buy
happiness (but it sure helps).
The
1080p 1.85 X 1 digital High Definition image and lossless DTS-HD (MA)
Master Audio lossless 5.1 mix play well together, but this looks
better than it sounds being dialogue-based and all. Extras include
deleted scenes, behind the scenes, the music, music videos and
trailers.
