A romance isn't really a romance unless the damsel is thoroughly and properly rescued. Every good romance movie has that moment where the guy stands up for the girl. He takes her side and stays there, having her back. It gives me that warm feeling every time. That one moment is what keeps a good romance from being just a sappy movie.

Dermot Mulroney shines in this movie, as the guy who sticks by his woman, takes her side and doesn't back down when she needs to be told she's wrong either. He is no wimp. He does have a sexy smile you won't soon forget either.

I've watched this movie three times: once in the movie theatre when it was new and twice since then when I noticed it on TV. I'd still watch it a fourth time if it were on tonight.

The end question is... who would you buy as a date for a wedding (or just a date of your choosing)?

Kat, hires a man she has never met before to be her date for a wedding. Nick, an escort for hire, turns out to be worth all she pays. He looks good, he speaks well and there is something very leading man about him even when he is just paid to be there - you feel he actually does want to be there. There is more to the story of course, Turns out Kat's ex boyfriend is at the wedding. She wants him back. But, there's a little secret Kat's friends have been keeping from her...

In the end it all works out and Nick (Dermot Mulroney) stands by his woman.

If you could hire a really great guy to be your date for a family function... would you?

• Of course not, I'm already married/ with a really great guy.
• No, I can barely ask a guy out on a regular date.
• No, he wouldn't be a "nice" guy if he can be paid for that way.
• Yes, I might.
• Yes, I'd be tempted to show off a great catch, just for once.
• Yes, it could be fun and only one day after all.
