Narration didn't really bother me. Since it was really late when I watched this movie it actually worked in my favor! It kept me from thinking so much!? With our without narration I like this movie. I love the actors and cheesy as it may have been actually liked the fairytale feeling!

When you have to have a narrator explain why the heroine ceases to age and then starts to age again with made up psychobabble your film is beyond hope.
Also, a much braver choice for ending this film wouldve been to have her die in the car wreck. But that would put off too many that want a good cry followed up by a lovestruck ending. Even though its really kind of icky that she boinked the dad and now she is boinking the son. WHat a weird vibe during the holidays. Especially if the mom finds out. -

The pseudo-scientific narration was too cute by half. TV seems to do much better with narrators. See: Pushing Daisies, Arrested Development, Jane the Virginthose omniscient voices actually add something, rather than just lazily explaining things away.

If the audience is too dumb to figure out the lightning bolt caused it even though that has been a trope since at least Frankenstein, fine, say the lightning bolt caused it. But don't drone on with a bunch of pseudo science babbling trying to make it sound realistic. It's FINE if it's miraculous and mysterious.
