Reagen Sulewski: Tatum feels like one of those interchangable guys that we'll look back on for VH1s "I love the Tens" and say "remember that guy?" I think the biggest asset for a young actor is the ability to play comedy, and Seyfried has well proven that she can do that. Hollywood's not kind to female starlets, though, so the answer could well end up being "neither" despite this film.

Max Braden: I have trouble imagining Seyfried as much of a lead. I don't doubt she'll have plenty of visible roles in the future, but I don't see her name touted as a big star. I think the opposite for Tatum, though. Despite the apparently lackluster filmography to date, he's building face recognition. And you can count his competition among the under 30 crowd on one hand. I think his screen presence over the last 12 months is going to land him more opportunities. They may be Stallone-type opportunities, but Stallone was still one of the biggest stars in his prime years.

Kim Hollis: I want to say that I think it's Seyfriend, but I honestly think that for both of them, they've mostly had the benefit of being at the right place at the right time - at least so far.

Pete Kilmer: Seyfried just needs that one big hit romance movie to become the next Anne Hathaway. She's being tested right now, I suspect. Tatum is just the next big stud on the block and if he can act just a little bit he'll be the next young 30-something that we'll see all over the place. Tatum will be taking the spots Brendan Fraser was in a few years ago.
