Another reviewer says that the leads start out as annoying, but stick with it. Oh boy, the annoying part is very true. It's not just the leads. Almost everyone is obnoxious and it's obviously intended to be funny. Not just obnoxious, but mean obnoxious. I didn't find any of that funny. Not to say that there weren't a few funny moments. Unfortunately the obnoxious lasts for nearly half the movie.
Then suddenly, the leads, at least, get nice. Then it turns into a love story which quickly develops a conflict.
There's also a family crisis angle which revolves around cute little Taylor and a predictable climax. I'd say it's a toss up whether it was worth sticking.
This is mostly a family movie with appeal to children. There are some interesting camera angles though.
Great line: "It's like a Superman, Clark Kent thing.... Except you're a bunny."

Plot summary
Eddie Avedon's shot at a prestigious movie part, his ticket out of playing Mulligan the bunny in a children's TV show, is ruined after a car accident with single mother Annie Benchley, which keeps haunting them. The part is promised to Avedon's lousy house-mate Scott Dunbar. Yet Eddie becomes friends with Annie and her young daughter, avid Mulliga-fan Taylor, and even sticks his neck out to arrange surgery for her blinding condition.

Super obnoxious is funny?
Why Don't Fools Fall in Love?
This is a very pleasant romantic comedy from the Hallmark Channel, with all the trappings of a real comedy: good acting -- not only are the leads exceedingly handsome, but they are capable, and there's Marilu Henner and Fred Willard in support -- a story in which people change and some actual comedy as people fall into a pool. As Preston Sturges noted, if there is a pool, people must fall into it. Nor is it just a gag. Even the jokes serve to advance the plot.
Most of the credit must go to a fine script by Peter Facinelli and Charles T. Daniels, who manage to combine some soap-opera-like plot points into the mix. However, kudos to everyone for a superior production.
No Accident...This is Really Good Love ***1/2
A wonderful picture in which we see the unusual way that a cad,so full of himself, who couldn't care less about others while attempting to stardom meets by chance a widow with a daughter going blind. How the two first meet in a traffic accident becomes absolutely hilarious, and how after disliking one another intensely, love blossoms when he finds out that her daughter is going blind.
We have a great cast proving once again that a selfish man can be made to show humility when there is adversity.
This is a movie for all ages, but especially it's for children and those who face adversity during their lifetimes.
