Excellent Film - A must see in my opinion!

Rating: 9/10 (19 February 2007)

I initially decided to watch this film with the assumption that it would be another average comedy film with some funny scenes here and there. However that assumption proved to be incorrect after I had finished watching it, because not only does it provide humour in a number of cases (which I personally found very funny), but the story within the film was very powerful and compelling in that it gives a man a look at his life the way it is heading. The fact that even with the best intentions at heart, he is neglecting his family life so much in favour of his job - that in the end will ruin his personal life to a point where he has nothing but his work -hurting and losing all those around him. The ending is very dramatic, which ends up in giving Adam Sandler "a break", so he can go back and do things all over again in a manner which he chooses. I loved every moment of this film including the humour and the story that it told and would recommend this to anyone! On a personal note I found Kate Beckinsale to be incredibly sexy, which if anything must give it bonus points lol!
A Moral from me To forget who you are at heart and give in to the demands of our professional or working lives is a very powerful lesson. I know it can be hard and we all do it - but just every once in a while this film has reminded me that we need to give ourselves a break, if yet only brief, that we remember who we are, what we love in life, our fondest memories, because unlike this film it is extremely unlikely that we will be given a 2nd chance in life to re-live our personal interests.
