You won't be disappointed!

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Clifford Godfrey (Andrew McCarthy) designs doll house accessories in Chicago. His girlfriend dumps him right before Christmas. He has two non-refundable tickets and nobody to go with. He's drinking alone in a bar when Amanda Hughes (Kelly Preston) stumbles into his life. They spend the night together but she doesn't remember it especially traveling to another country. Clare Enfield (Helen Hunt) is also at the resort taking pictures for a brochure.Cliff and Amanda are pretty annoying characters. Andrew McCarthy is still trying to live off of his boyish charms but this character is too much for him to overcome. At least, Amanda is suppose to be the flighty self-obsessed high maintenance girl. Helen Hunt is sweet and adorable. This is a weak rom-com with very limited comedy. This is not a good showcase for Betty Thomas' directorial debut. The movie could have been saved with a more compelling Cliff but he's pretty pathetic here. Amanda doesn't actually have to work very hard to wrap him around her little finger.

The problem with 'Only You' isn't so much that this low-budget fare is structured upon ever romantic comedy cliché you can think of. Andrew McCarthy plays the misguided fool who is torn between the insincere bimbo (Kelly Preston) that he spends the Christmas holiday at a tropical resort after being dumped and in a drunken haze, travels there with his new companion. The clerk at the travel agency (Helen Hunt) who wouldn't give him a refund for his trip earlier in the evening coincidentally shows up there too, on a freelance photography gig (seriously, these people must be traveling on supersonic rockets to get from Chicago to the beachside resort so quickly). And of course, the gold-digging bimbo treats him like crap and he slowly starts to realize that perhaps, the real girl for him, is the genuine travel agent/photographer he spends a lot of time with on his vacation when the bimbo is constantly hanging out somewhere with more manly men who swoon her. And yada, yada, yada... the foolish protagonist must make up his mind about what kind of lady he wants, and well... it's not only typical to romantic comedy plots, it's typical Andrew Mccarthy.Granted the movie does offer at least a few laughs, but the movie would've been much more believable had all of this not happened in the course of about ten days. True, McCarthy's character was impulsive, but it didn't seem to square that Helen Hunt's character was, too. But of course, this is a movie. And not even a really good one, either.

I like Andrew McCarthy, and he was excellent in this film. There's a lot of good laughs in the film although beneath the comedy is some very real-life tragic situations.It's too bad that the selfish beautiful airhead (Kelly Preston)has to be blonde. Aren't they stereotyped enough already? Similarly, the predatory males are latin-blood.Helen Hunt is excellent. The definitive scene where she falls in love is very well done, but with too much emphasis on the maternal.Despite the ending being silly, I gave this a 7.

This is a great movie. Andrew McCarthy is a doll-house furniture designer who hasn't been having good luck with women lately. He finds an incredibly hot-looking woman in a bar and decides to fly her to paradise for Christmas. The next morning the woman, Kelly Preston, wakes up and doesn't remember anything due to being drunk. I don't want to spoil the movie but unexpected things happen and love blossoms in Only You. Andrew McCarthy is incredible, and Kelly Preston is superb. see it today.
