Interested in seeing a love story that transcends the rom com genre by breathing new life into it with a unique plot and A-list actors?  Eager to settle into a theater seat with buttery popcorn in your lap and your girlfriends giggling by your side?  The Romantics, which premieres today, September 10, may be just what you need. Based on the novel by producer/writer/director Galt Niederhoffer, The Romantics is directed by its original novelist and follows the story of seven close friends, all members of the same college clique, as they get together to watch two of their own get married. Lila (Anna Paquin), the bride, and Laura (Katie Holmes), the maid of honor, have long been coveting for Tom (Josh Duhamel), the groom.  In fact, Laura is his former lover.  As if this heated love triangle doesn’t create enough tension and drama already, the drunken group of friends takes a late-night swim the day before the wedding and return without the groom. Ominous weather is looming overhead, and the night is sure to be eventful.
Want some solid reasons as to why you should start making your way over to the movie theater?
