This lighthearted "chick flick" was wonderful escapism entertainment. The story has probably been done before in different ways, but this one, due to its humor and cast, kept my attention and pulled me into the story. Josh's best friend was Molly's older brother during high school. Molly was always "the little sister." How each of them viewed the other drastically changed, even against their will, as the two "pretended" to be engaged to make Josh's dying father happy. The relationship evolved with humor utilizing miscommunication and even tackled the families' two opposite religions trying to meld together: staunch Irish Catholic and Jewish. Molly (Aubrey Dollar) was sweet, cute, and adorable...the all-American girl next door. Josh (Shane McRae) was the typical hot player, never wanting more than a bit of fun with women. The chemistry between the Dollar and McRae was believable and the families were stereotypical to the point of comical.
Although "One Small Hitch" was predictable, it was an absolute pleasure to watch. It was endearing, lighthearted, sweet, and just plain fun. This was a perfect film to see with girlfriends.
score 7/10
