Jane Claremont (Emily Alyn Lind) has imaginary friend Michael. Her mother Vivienne (Stockard Channing) takes her to Tiffany's for her 10th birthday. It's time for Michael to leave her. Twenty years later, Jane (Alyssa Milano) is marrying TV star Hugh Morrison (Ivan Sergei) when her imaginary friend Michael (Eric Winter) reappears. He's sure that she needs him for some reason. She doesn't believe him and seeks help from her psychiatrist friend Jaqueline (Kristin Booth).This Lifetime TV movie has an intriguing premise. With Tiffany's being such a prominent landmark in the story, this needs to be shot in NYC especially the exterior shots. As for the story, Hugh needs to be more of a douche. Other than being self-obsessed, he doesn't seem to be horribly bad. There has to be a bigger reason for Michael to return. As for falling in love with Michael, there needs to be a more in-depth look into the life of imaginary friends. The intriguing premise should lead to something more compelling than this.

I see a good many movies on DVD and I have lately ventured into the rom- com field without much happiness or success. Movies in this genre are really intended as date movies that the girl drags the boy too so she can live out some fantasy time. This movie is supposed to be a fantasy from childhood come to life, but there is very little life in it. The imaginary friend who comes to rescue the lead character just as she is about to marry a self centered actor is likable enough, since he isn't obnoxious, but just about nothing else about the movie makes sense. Why is the imaginary friend able to stay in the real world beyond his supposed departure time? How did he know to come back? Why is there a little black kid popping up and advising him on the rules of imaginary friends?If he has come back to rescue this girl, why doesn't he say so straight out? Oyvay! Who cares? Dumb and sappy, this movie really stinks. At least it follows one of the key unwritten rules of rom-coms: everything happens in New York City. You can have rom and you can have com, but if you want both, its gotta be in the Big Apple, right?

Delightful premise. Eric Winter does a very good job playing an innocent child-like spirit in an adult body. He plays those scenes with zest and energy. The script has some cute scenes and dialogue based on that premise. Eric Winter and Alyssa Milano have excellent chemistry as best friends.There are some clichés in this film: The fiancé is a selfish and vain man, who does not appreciate the protagonist's true self. The protagonist gave up on her dreams and took a safe boring path through life. Not every scene works but still a pleasant film.Stockard Channing is a great performer, but this role does not use her superlative talent.Alyssa Milano plays down her sexiness to play a regular career girl. She is quite good in this role.

I wasn't sure what to expect with this movie since I haven't read the book. I was pleasantly surprised however! From the moment the movie started I was enthralled with the characters. Who didn't have an imaginary friend as a kid? Pretty much everyone did. Jane was a lovely, if a bit confused, character... a very everyday sort of woman. And Michael! Well, since I haven't read the book I don't know if Eric Winter truly captured the character or not but if he is anything like how he is portrayed then I am going to love him.This movie gets an A in my book. I would recommend it to anyone who likes an innocent romance.
