Perfect cast and a good story
Excellent but underrated film
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
This movie has an interesting and well executed idea. Overall its pretty funny and sweet. If you're interested in watching it, then watch it. Its not fantastic, but its not bad. I had a lot of fun watching this movie. Ironically, its pretty forgettable and average. Still a lot of fun though.
Henry, who lives in a Hawaiian paradise, accomplishes a fateful encounter with beautiful woman, Lucy, at a restaurant. The next day, he tries to deepen the relationship, but Lucy can't recognize him on account of her short-term memory. After he finds out the fact, he pours his energy into her in the face of adversity. This film is deep love story but not described in a serious way, also in a comical and humorous way.Henry's love toward Lucy is pure and his figure of making a marriage propose to her everyday without quitting is touching and very masculine. Also, by using a video to keep her memory clear is a brilliant idea and is a measure how much Lucy is valued and loved by Henry and around her company. The way of her family to protect memory-loss Lucy, which they pretend as if the day hasn't proceed since she gets into an accident, might be viewed as too much at times, but her family literally cherishes her from bottom of their heart.From this film, I figure out that we need to spend a day without regret, we'll never know what would become of us the next day.
I didn't know about this film till my uncle introduce it to me 10 years later. I didn't know what to expect. After watching it I was just shocked how awesome this movie was. Its a comedy with a very nice story to go with it. The jokes are crude and slapstick which is awesome. Rob Schneider's character made me laugh so much as well as Sandler. I was surprised I never heard of this movie back then but not long after watching it, I had to own it. I can't imagine anyone hating on this film. Barrymore and Sandler are great actors with amazing roles in this movie. Its just laid back fun which no one should miss out on. Enjoy this Hidden Masterpiece!
The premise for this movie was, quite frankly, pure genius. It was one of those rare ideas that could be brilliant as either a comedy or a drama. This could have been a harrowing, yet beautiful love story. It could have been a riveting, intelligent comedy. But when they cast Sandler, it became neither.Instead of telling an almost comically tragic story of love prevailing against impossible odds, they take a real medical condition and stretch it and stretch it until it becomes almost offensively unrealistic. I swear, "Finding Nemo," who only had the condition for laughs, did it better than this movie, which was fueled by its very presence. The directing is alright. There's rarely anything specifically wrong with directing in a movie. In addition to this, there were multiple occasions where I found myself laughing. There was one occasion that I was cracking up.But those are the only redeeming qualities. The acting, writing, and realism are all atrocious.The writing is my biggest problem. Once again, it takes a fantastic premise and wastes it on lesbian jokes. It wastes it on slapstick. It wastes it on vomit jokes. It wastes it on butt crack jokes, and worst of all, it wastes it on Adam Sandler.Which brings us to the acting. Barrymore was actually very good in this movie; I'm not going to lie. Especially considering the incredible emotion she's tasked with portraying, she's phenomenal. There are very few actors or actresses who can successfully pull off that very specific emotion of realizing that, well, this is the thousandth time you've seen that tape.That being said, Sandler was absolutely horrible. Over the many, many years he's been making movies, he seems to have mastered the emotions of "happiness" and "weirded out" down to a science. Unfortunately, this movie requires him to feel actual emotion, and play a character that isn't exactly who he is already, and in the department of actually acting, he seems to be at a loss.Really, really atrocious.
