Input: because no one demanded it :
david duchovny in a romantic comedy !
at last , both his romantic magnetism and his comedic brilliance are mined for all their resources !
the choice of duchovny may have something to do with the plot , which could be fodder for a valentine 's day episode of " the x - files .
"
bob rueland ( david duchovny ) loses his wife elizabeth ( joely richardson ) in a car accident .
at the same time , grace briggs ( minnie driver ) is in the hospital , waiting for a heart transplant .
grace gets elizabeth 's heart , and it leads her to bob .
it 's the romantic equivalent of all those horror films where someone gets a transplant from a serial killer and then is driven to slaughter people .
four writers are credited with contributing to the story .
that does n't seem possible .
despite being a solid two hours long , " return to me " adds little to
the " boy meets girl / boy loses girl " formula and , as a result , is terribly tedious and slow - moving .
duchovny and driver seem unable to generate any sparks , and
i kept wishing for a fast - forward button to move their scenes along .
since driver has managed to work well in romantic roles before , i blame duchovny .
he 's out of his element without the manufactured and static sexual tension of his tv series ( and i 've always thought that the relationship between mulder and scully on " the x - files " comes off more sibling - like than hot - and - bothered ) .
there 's something about duchovny that
makes me uneasy .
regardless of the role he 's playing , he comes off as a weirdo .
the only redeeming quality of " return to me " is its hilarious supporting cast .
the circle of friends and relatives around bob and grace is constantly playing matchmaker , and they generate the only laughs in the movie .
carroll o'connor is grace 's grandfather marty o'reilly .
when bob comes into marty 's restaurant after hours , marty immediately begins quizzing bob about his marital status .
when marty discovers that bob is a widower , he invites bob to join his poker game and introduces him with the declaration , " this is bob !
his wife is dead !
" the poker buddies are just as desperate to find a mate for grace and greet bob enthusiastically when they hear the news .
also funny : bonnie hunt as grace 's best friend megan and james belushi as megan 's husband joe .
married with children , megan and joe provide a useful counterpoint by showing the mundane results of romance .
although it 's rare to see him in a movie that premieres in a theater , belushi delivers his lines with great comic skill .
rounding out the impressive supporting cast are david alan grier as bob 's best friend and robert loggia as marty 's brother - in - law angelo .
in only the lead actors lived up to the standards set by the rest of the cast .
bottom line : if you are compelled to see this movie , watch it on video
so you can fast - forward
to scenes with carroll o'connor and james belushi .
