An entertaining movie - I would recommend this to others

Rating: 7/10 (29 November 2006)

The movie was fun to watch - touching in the right places, funny in the right places, and great continuity of storyline. Jack Black and Kate Winslet are perfect, and I'm not a fan of Jude Law but thoroughly enjoyed watching him as the sensitive man. He needs more roles like this. All three displayed great comic timing.
Bonus points for casting Eli Wallach.
On a negative note - Cameron Diaz proves once again that her acting talents are fair at best. Her opening scenes with Edward Burns are stiff and not believable, but she grows into the part. Luckily for her the writing is good enough to carry her through.
I would recommend this movie to others.
