"Imagine Me & You" may in fact be one of the best romantic comedies ever to hit the big screen

"Imagine Me & You" is not your typical love story. It is the story of a girl named Rachel (Piper Perabo) who is getting married to her long term fiancée Heck (Matthew Goode). At the wedding ceremony, Rachel locks eyes with the flower girl Luce (Lena Headey) and feels something that she has never felt before. After the wedding, Rachel invites Luce over for some dinner to thank her for such a wonderful flower arrangement and to help set up Heck's friend Coop (Darren Boyd) with Luce. Before dinner, Heck asks Luce if she has a husband or a boyfriend but to Heck's surprise he finds out that she has neither and is indeed attracted to members of the same sex. Heck shocked by the news, alerts Rachel. But Rachel seems to be uninterested in the news and just wants to know why she is so drawn to Luce. Funny and touching moments ensue…

I was lucky enough to be invited to a free screening for this film. This is definitely a film I would have been happy to pay for. This movie is often funny but is never over the top. "Imagine Me & You" is definitely a breathe of fresh air when it comes to the whole romantic comedy genre. I think the whole new spin with homosexual love stories is helping this genre and allowing some fresh new material to be used.

I personally really like Piper Perabo. I first saw her in the movie "Lost & Delirious" which is a wonderful and beautifully told tale. After seeing that movie, I was blown away by her performance. But soon after she wasn't in much and kind of started to do bad mainstream movies like "The Cave" but now with "Imagine Me & You" I can say that she's back to where she belongs. Piper plays Rachel like the role was tailor made for her. Her performance is touching and believable. Matthew Goode also stars as the lovable and sensible husband. Again I liked Matthew Goode from the first time I saw him in "Chasing Liberty". Goode has definitely come a long way from "Chasing Liberty" and has proved himself to be a worthy addition to Hollywood as an actor. He plays a very likable but caring husband in this film. He is rather solid in his performance and delivers some nice laughs. Also Lena Headley is a joy to watch on screen and played her role flawlessly. I really liked all the performances including several of the smaller roles that I haven't mentioned.

I never heard of Ol Parker before I watched this movie. Mr. Parker was both the writer and director of this film. I personally think that Mr. Parker has a career ahead of him. The problem is will he be able to keep his movies as fresh as this movie? Mr. Parker did a great job capturing the true emotions of the characters and showing how hard it is to be something that isn't always acceptable by everyone. I really liked the director's choice of music as well. The Turtles song at the end really fit in with the moment.

Overall, I would have paid full price admission to see this movie and probably will go back to the theater sometime and see it again. I think the homosexual love stories will be a big hit and make people feel a little more accepting of someone's sexual choice. The movie is definitely a feel good movie with a unique twist and a good amount of laughs. At the screening, the film had a very good audience and was loved by most. People clapped and stayed till the end of the credits which doesn't happen that often. The movie made people laugh, cry, and overall feel good about life. "Imagine Me & You" is definitely a movie I would like to see more of in the years to come.

MovieManMenzel's final rating for "Imagine Me & You" is an 8/10.

A nice twist, but still an average film

As a twist on the norms of the romantic comedy, this film is to be applauded. Sadly though it never really reaches its full potential, and therefore doesn't quite live up to the billing on the DVD cover that it is 'the best British romantic comedy since Notting Hill'.

Piper Perabo is as lovely as ever, but she can't save this film from being distinctly average. Matthew Goode is as wooden as ever.

A shame, this could've been better.

Lesbian rom-com, unreal-unfunny

Rachel (Piper Perabo) and Heck (Matthew Goode) are newlyweds, but Rachel slowly falls for the gay florist Luce (Lena Headey).

It's good that even a lesbian rom-com can be unfunny and bland. Now, they are truly mainstream. This is a British film and there's a chance I missed all the jokes because of the accent. I highly doubt it. None of the leads have much comedic experiences. They are all good actors. What little experience they have is to be the straight man (pun unintended) in a comedic film.

It's not that I think the dialog was delivered improperly. It starts off with dropping the wedding ring in the punch bowl. I see they were trying for some slapstick there, but like the rest, it failed. In fact, it all failed. It seems they can't hit their mark even with the porn setup. I'm very doubtful if the director knows how to do comedy.
