Catch (Jim Caviezel) is a loner who spends his days wandering about and helping people when he can.

Sharon (Jennifer Lopez) is a single cop who has a problematic relationship with her family.

When Catch saves Sharon’s life during a chase, they connect. Catch is nothing like the guys around her, and she can’t help but being drawn to him. But the mystery about him is annoying her as he doesn’t seem to want to share anything about his own life while he’s more than happy to be involved in hers. But as they don’t want to stop being around each other, Catch makes more of an effort and Sharon ignores the things that don’t make sense. But Catch’s past- a past that he doesn’t remember all that well-eventually catches up with them. Can the relationship survive what he has gone through?

Angel Eyes is a sweet romantic drama with a decent story. Sure, there are a few things about the movie I’d have done differently (such as some scenes, the timeline and mostly the soundtrack).

But it is entirely watchable and likeable, especially if you are a romantic who enjoys emotional stories that haven’t been injected with extra tragedy to be a tear-jerker.

Attention to the word extra: there is a tragedy in the core. This is the first movie I had seen Jim Caviezel in and needless to say he made a good impression. The guy can pull off tall, dark, mysterious and handsome.

 

You’re strongly recommended to ignore the  genre label on IMDB as it is also featured as a thriller. It’s not. It’s good old fashioned romantic drama directed by Luis Mandoki who directed When a Man Loves a Woman, Trapped, Message in a Bottle, White Palace and more. And frankly, it does deserve a bit more than 5.5 (its imdb rating).

 

Fun note: Terrence Howard has a supporting role as one of Jennifer Lopez’s cop buddies, and Jeremy Sisto plays her brother.
