English Poor Charlie is drowning in sorrow over the tragic death of his little brother, and I'm drowning in grief over the loss of one hundred minutes of my life that I spent with this pseudo-romantic kitsch pretending to be a drama. Actually, no, I'm kidding, I fast-forwarded through some parts, so I was saved from some of the embellished dialogues, pathetic scenes, and mediocre actors pretending to have deep emotions. Overall impression: 25%. ()
