I cannot believe I am doing this!!!

Rating: 9/10 (17 February 2005)

Okay, let me say it right off the bat, 'I do not like romantic comedies!!'. But, once in a while (actually only once before) a RC comes along that breaks the barriers of my manhood; Jerry McGuire being the other. Let me break it down for you.
My wife drug me to this movie kicking and screaming all the way, just knowing it would be the typical: Guy meets girl-guy loses girl-guy gets girl back, type of movie. Don't get me wrong this movie does fit this profile, but with much greater depth. The acting is GREAT; I think I will now allow Will Smith back in my 'Circle of Trust' (he was soundly booted after his performance in 'I, Robot'). The story is somewhat unique, but the addition of Kevin James made all the difference. I have been in these situations before and couldn't wait to get out of the seat and back home to watch ESPN, but there is something special about this film.
I gave this movie a 9, only because my male pride will not allow me to give a Romantic Comedy any higher of a rating. Go and see this movie!
