Better Late Then Never

Absolutely the worst movie.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

OK, I'll admit it, I watched this piece of nonsense because of Marisa Tomei. Such a cutey. And also because of the the word "sci-fi" in the TV description -- "romantic comedy" alone, is a no-go for me. So I sat through the whole thing, as baffling, silly, and self-contradictory as it was. Someone suggested Ruby was a bimbo fluff-head for not listening to and understanding Sam's complex "science" and ever-changing explanations. How could she not accept his hokum? How could anyone in their right mind accept anything from this creepy, pitiful character whose stories kept changing? Vincent D'Onofrio's Sam Deed was very hard to like -- too big, loud, weepy, goofy, doubtful. (Samedi, by the way, pronounced much like Sam Deed, is French for Saturday, the day after the dreaded Friday, when neither Ruby nor Sam could simply stay put for the day.)

i thought i'd add another great review among the many that are here on IMDb. first off the acting was very superb by Vincent D'Onofrio and Marisa Tomei. after about twenty minutes of seeing them acting together just sucked me in completely on this quirky but, fun romantic comedy/science fiction (romcom/scifi) film. their acting styles complimented each other so well and the chemistry was just mixed well in the film worlds laboratory (whether it was due to well editing or the actor/actress themselves). second this movie just kept me on a roller-coaster of a ride once i thought i had it figured out i was completely thrown for a loop back into the wacky roller-coaster design like that of the space traveling story that Sam gives and Ruby is just in the front seat of it all, as are we, the audience. i chose this movie based on it being a recommendation through amazon and thought "what they hey! i'll get it." so i ordered it and have not been disappointed by my decision of getting it. this movie is a must have for any movie goers collection and to see with friends, family, or that special someone. trust me you won't regret it.

I watched this flick eight years after the fact. Its one of those movies that you are skeptical about for quite some time but that eventually just win you over to their side. The bottom line is that Marisa and Vincent's argument scenes are just so hilarious that it hardly matters what the rest of the film is about or does. Anyone who is married or in thick relationships gets into those arguments that are so stupid that logic, wisdom and intelligence become besides the point. The point is these two people and their wants, fears, needs and their underlying desire to love the person they are arguing with lead to a conclusion that may not make sense but becomes Cupid's compromise. I was not not familiar with Vincent O. but he was just great. And no one, no one, does New York better than Marisa.

I loved this movie it was a great powerful indie flick. When you first start watching it you think something then toward the end you are stunned it is so easy to watch and Vincent D'Onofrio and Marisa Tomei have great chemistry and light up every screen you watch it on. I tell everyone I know you rent it and watch it because I love it and it will be one of my best all time favorite movies. Even though there is cussing and inappropriate things it is such a great movie coming from a Vincent D'Onofrio Fan. If you like any actors that play in this film you will love it. It is a love story no matter what anyone says and even though the plot can be alittle strange it's very interesting. You will fall in love with it. Especially when Sam says I feel like my whole life has been a journey into your arms. That is a powerful quote and i give props to who wrote that. Rhiannon
