A great "love to smile" movie - one for the ladies!
I've read some of the reviews and have to disagree with them - this is a really sweet movie. Adam Sandler's character (Henry) is the typical luv 'em and leave 'em kind of guy before he meets Drew Barrymore's character, Lucy. Due to brain damage from a car accident a year earlier, Lucy can't convert short term memory into long term memory - she keeps replaying the same day over and over. Henry is intrigued by this at first, and tries each day to get Lucy to like him. After awhile, though, he truly starts to care for her and wants to help her move on with her life. Other characters - the friends from the bar and Lucy's father - are super in how they protect her by replaying the same day over with her. Her brother is definitely doofy, but easily ignored. This movie is a romance with a happy ending. Prepare to smile alot and maybe even cry a few tears!
