I watched two films on TV today; in both cases, I saw about 75% of each film, missing the beginning. There were similarities between the films: both were set in Seattle, one completely and one partially. Both featured widowed fathers to 10 year old boys; both had love interests who were involved to one extent or another with another man.
One film probably had a low budget; no actor was familiar to me. The other film probably had quite a high budget, with a name director and six name actors, all well known. One film had an almost totally believable story whereas the second had a totally unbelievable story. One film probably had low pretensions and came off quite well, whereas the other had high pretensions and I don't understand how people can rate this film so well.
One was 'Sleepless in Seattle'; the other was 'Hint of love'. One film you've all probably heard of, the other is completely unknown. I leave you to draw your own conclusions about which film was more successful.
