The film "The Vow," currently on view at the Heavenly Village Cinema in South Lake Tahoe, is a good bad film. The bad is the sweetness-loaded script and the apparently rock-dumb male lead, Channing Tatum, as Leo Collins. The good is co-star Rachel McAdams as Paige Collins. This is billed as a romantic comedy, ideal as a "date" outing. Maybe, but ...
Movie opens with a brief scene of now and then goes back to five years earlier when Paige and Leo exchanged vows in a yuppie-like wedding. Thus, "The Vow."
