Well, wonderful all-star cast, lovely sets, make-up, etc. but this - except for all the sex - reminds me of a Tricia Helfer Hallmark marriage-on-the-rocks-comes-back-together Christmas movie. Now I love acting-outlaw Tricia Helfer as much as the next guy, maybe more, but I find her FAR more stimulating playing genocidal alien robots or a 1000-year-old body-stealing deliciously evil Lady Dracula. This film may appeal to some people but I'm finding it hard suppressing the word "insipid". Cast, scenery, hair styles, props cannot make up for a 2-star screenplay. Or maybe it's just me. Want to see Cameron Diaz in a feel-good movie? I highly recommend "In Her Shoes", also a feel-good movie but much better written.

Well, I don't want to like this film, it seems so stupid, so formulaic, maybe we've seen this Sandler character before in some other film(s), in fact, I may have even grated my teeth a little for 30 or 40 minutes and rolled my eyes in a few scenes, BUT I CANNOT HELP MYSELF. Barrymore - Sandler, always a winning combination for me. The growing romantic tension and final payoff in the end is like feeding a RomComCoke addiction. I'm so weak.

Well I loved it! Well written, believable real characters with some depth and flaws, everybody learns something and moves forward in their lives, and it brought a tear to my eye. Knock off 0.3 stars because you can't really believe for a minute that Toni Collette and Cameron Diaz could be sisters - no resemblance whatsoever - but hey folks, it's called "willing suspension of disbelief." Be willing and enjoy!
