Product: 50 First Dates (Widescreen Special Edition) (2004)
Rating: 5.0
Playful, Tearful, Romantic, Delightful - 5 stars
Okay, okay, I realize that many of the reviewers did not give this film as high of a rank as I did. I wonder if that is because it is not worth 5 stars or if the other reviewers have watched Adam Sandler flicks enough that previous films color their perceptions of this one. Films can become formula.I have not watched other Adam Sandler films, so, like Lucy in the film, this was my first exposure.Drew Barrymore's range of emotions caught me off guard. I underestimated her. She made me laugh, cry, and sigh.Rob Schneider didn't exactly make me cry or sigh, but he did make me laugh and cough hard enough to fall out of my chair.The film was fun enough to watch twice, once with my teen age daughter, and a second time with my wife.If you've watched your share of Adam Sandler you might want to let this one pass by. But if you have passed his earlier flicks by, don't skip this one.
