Got in a mild argument of the merits and storyline of the movie with a friend. I need wider input...thanks in advance.

He was far too self-conscious, indulgent and charmless a subject for the good of his own film.

Drew Barrymore has been my lifelong crush. She turned 30 yesterday, Happy Birthday Drew.
I can't speak ill of one of her films. She was very funny and lovable in the role. I did not like Sandler in the lead role or Sean Astin as Doug.
I give the film a 6 out of ten, primarily because of Drew's playing a difficult role to be funny in and the great performances by Rob Schneider and Blake Clark. I also give Dan Aykroyd a thumbs up. He was classic as the doctor.

8. Drew's the best! The film was quite decent. |
|
Anything that can make me laugh is decent in my book.

3. It was more serious than I'd thought it would be. |
|
I liked it. At the end, it was a pretty deep movie.

7. I just can't buy Sandler as a "must-have" by the ladies... |
|
A doofus, yes. Cassanova, no. That premise was less plausible than a walrus vomiting on cue.

11. Oh yes... in real life it makes sense... |
|
In the movie, though, he doesn't appear wealthy. :)

14. Yeah, but Drew knew he was rich - otherwise she'd never kiss him |

Predictable, not great, but cute and makes me cry. I'd give it a :thumbsup:.

13. I really like both actors, but I said "sucked" cause... |

I used to work with people with tramatic brain injury (TBI) and had a client just like her. It was so sad, and his life doesn't have the happy ending that the leading lady's does. We literally had the same conversations every day, and I could not teach him to learn anything new. He will never be able to work or live independently. So, the movie was too real for me....God, I hate motorcycles! :cry:
