The film has a slow start and a gradually unfolding structure. This is the film that once you start watching it, you would not stop. There is an underlying satirical tone throughout the film. The soundtrack may seem strange at first, and later you would find out that the music is carefully chosen. The screenplay is brilliant and contains a number of ups and downs, twists and turns. The two leads are incredible. McCarthy and Grant both give their best performances in their entire careers.
