Excellent Romantic Comedy. This Is Good Whether You're A Sandler Fan or Not!

Rating: 9/10 (23 March 2007)

Let me begin this by stating that Drew IS the star of this work. Sandler is a mere detail, although I found his performance very enjoyable. What did NOT belong here was Rob Schneider. He should have been excised from this work in every way, shape, and form. He had no place here, but we all know Sandler WILL employ his friends who have a hard time getting a job otherwise. You just can't hate that about someone. It is a trait to be admired. But when your friend is as untalented as Rob, get him a job as a crew member, NOT a cast member! Okay, enough of that.
This was only mildly funny, because the subject matter was too serious to actually rate outright comedy. The comedy is light, because it HAS to be light in order to sell the later premise.
The later premise is presented beautifully, in sensitivity, and with a fair amount of awe. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
It rates an 8.8/10 on the RomCom Scale from...
