sweet story, nice script, perfect cast. a love story in same rules of genre, not profound but comfortable, using the difference of age as spice and two not bad actors in the lead roles. so, a modern form of fairy tale with clichés and tension moments, lovely landscapes and pleasant atmosphere. nothing new but that could be its fundamental virtue. because, in fact, it is only a film with Heather Locklear and Robert Buckley, with surfing in Hawaii and collection of stereotypes, ideal choice for Sunday evening, not problematic but sweet and nice and decent. so, an easy romantic film with the ordinaries problems and solutions, selfish and dreams. better than many other examples of genre, it is a soft refuge for romantics and the victims of a hard long work day.

I have just seen this movie and i just wanna say that it is awesome. The chemistry between Locklear and Buckley are amazing, it's funny sexy and most importantly, it challenges the view society has built regarding single women over 35.Pretty early in the movie you find out that Locklears ex-husband Daniel has a new girlfriend; he is 42 and she only 28. I'm pretty sure that none of you raised an eyebrow; i mean there's nothing wrong to have some "lamb-meat" if you are a guy. In that case you are hip cool, and you get tons of respect from your pals. If this would be let's say an older woman and a young hot guy, then the woman has some sort of midlife crisis, she's s bad mother, irresponsible; running around with her boy toy.It's obvious that her friends are happy that she's moving on, but they also gives her; as they call it " friendly advise".I am in my mid thirties and i am not accepting the fact that men are allowed to act different than a woman when it comes to sex and relationships and neither should you.This movie has everything and i have been smiling for about an hour now, and it doesn't get any better than looking at Buckleys sun-tanned hot body and gorgeous smile.

I accidentally turned the TV to star movies and started watching this movie just because I live in Hawaii and I saw Diamond head, which I personally found the only true thing about Oahu in this movie.This movie must have been written based on a novel of an author who found herself a lot unattractive and rewarded herself with such a fantasy. The main character is too old and her acting sucks. Anyone who still thinks this stupid movie is true, go to Hawaii and you are welcome to stay with me for free if you could find such a surfer on the beach. Oh, and skip the broke ones too, if you're better looking than that cougar, i'm sure you can find a great 6 packed lad with buckets of money too. Come on, we are not 13 year-old teenagers to believe in such things. Get real!

The older woman with a younger guy syndrome. Of course, when her husband falls for a younger girl, this is perfectly all right. This seems to be the norm in society.While on vacation, Jackie, (Locklear) falls for a younger guy, a surf instructor. Her friends back at home try to dissuade her from such a relationship. Even her former husband, who is living with a younger girl, has his criticisms as well. There are 2 children involved.When you think of it, this is really an updated version of 1955's "All that Heaven Allows," with Jane Wyman and Rock Hudson. Of course, that was far superior because of the likes of Janie and Rock and the marvelous supporting cast of Jacqueline de Wit, the town's vicious gossip and Wyman friend, Agnes Moorehead.A lot of these films have the same common denominator. While there shall be an understanding at the end, the husband loses his new girlfriend.
