I'll have what she's having

Rating: 10/10 (24 June 1999)

I see movies, I love them - so I see them again. Usually, by the second or third time, I'm picking them apart, finding flaws. Even some really good movies cannot withstand the close, merciless scrutiny of a third viewing.
And then I find movies that I can watch hundreds of times, and every time, find something new to enjoy. This is one of those precious few movies which continues to seem amazing to me, even the eleventh time. It's about imperfect, neurotic people, and maybe that's why it's so easy to identify with and to love. It also has an original, hilarious and quotable script, and actors that play their parts so well, it becomes hard to disassociate them from their characters. (Carrie Fisher in Star Wars, as Princess Leia? No way.) If you've ever had a friend of the opposite sex, go and see this movie.
