* FridgeLogic: Everything in the story happens because Anna is desperate to get to Dublin where tradition says a woman can propose to her boyfriend on Leap Day. It never occurs to anyone to point out there’s no rule forbidding a woman in America to propose to anyone she wants to any day of the year, Leap Year or otherwise.

* TookTheBadFilmSeriously: The critical consensus seems to be that the film is saved from being an utter turkey only by Creator/AmyAdams doing her level best to make her character an endearing romantic lead.

Added DiffLines:
* AmericansHateTingle: Given how straight the {{Oireland}} trope is played here, this film got absolutely slated by Irish critics and audiences.
* ClicheStorm: This is not so much a film as it is the feeding every RomCom and {{Oireland}} cliche imaginable into a blender and making the audience drink the result.
* HilariousInHindsight: When Anna describes her job to Declan, he gives her a double-take, goes LetMeGetThisStraight...and finally says, "You're a con artist!" Cut to a few years later, and what does Creator/AmyAdams play in ''Film/AmericanHustle''...?
* SoOkayItsAverage: Creator/AmyAdams is lovable as ever, though.
* TheUntwist: [[spoiler: So you were maybe anticipating a "shocking" twist of Jeremy proving his worth to Anna and securing her heart after all, while Declan, after all the BelligerentSexualTension and inevitable developing chemistry, does ''not'' become the superior choice that she runs to in the end? Nope.]]
* TheWoobie: Creator/AmyAdams suffering as the ButtMonkey easily invokes this. Especially after Anna misses the train, and finally sheds tears at how ''nothing'' has worked out on this journey so far.
