Rosie, a successful businesswoman, finds herself floundering in the search for her one true love. When a handsome stranger comes into her life she must decide if she?s ready to settle down, or if there?s more to life than white picket fences.
The story is clear, as is the protagonist, but both are generic. There is nothing in this logline to differentiate this story from every other romance/coming-of-age film about a businesswoman.

This logline has a clear concept and genre. What I'm not clear on is why the kid wants the most popular girl in school to ask him out: what's driving him to do this?

What I’m not clear on is why the kid wants the most popular girl in school to ask him out: what’s driving him to do this?
I’m also wondering what this kid is up against: who are the kid’s rivals? What is his flaw that he must overcome?
And how old are these kids? A 13 year-old trying to get the 17 year-old prom queen to date him is a very different movie compared to two 17 year-olds protagonists.
Also, what’s the girl really like? She’s popular, but is she nice or does she treat people like dung?
Finally: why mention Oakland and New York City? It doesn’t strike me as being important, because it doesn’t add much to the characters.
I don’t agree that the protagonist’s aim to get the most popular girl in school to ask him out would make him passive: I can see it making him extremely active, and force him to change. (I think a similar idea ? outsider kid getting popular girl to ask him out ? was used in Some Kind of Wonderful (1987, writer John Hughes).)

A film with a 10 year-old detective has definite marketable possibilities as a children’s film. But this logline leaves me wondering who the little detective will be going up against (include the antagonist), who vanished (other children? Parents?) and what makes the kid a prodigy (the kid could be a fabulous tennis player right now). The genre is also unclear: is this a serious thriller or a light-hearted kids’ film?
