... View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
... View MoreThere's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
... View MoreHorrible horrible movie!! Don't watch it! Huge waste of time!!!
... View MoreThe most unpunctual and un-charatismic movie, acting and filming I've ever seen, my first movie review but I felt completely obliged to say this was actually the s***est movie to be produced, the fact IMDB give it such a solid rating gives me a total lack the disgust of faith in humanity.
... View MoreBarry Egan has seven overbearing sisters, one of whom is trying to set him up with her friend Lena; he isn't so keen. He doesn't realise but he has already met. After a family party, where we see Barry has serious anger issues, he calls a sex-line. He doesn't want phone sex; just somebody to talk to but after giving personal details the woman calls back asking for money. When he refuses she gets nasty. He has his credit card cancels and then her threats start to escalate. While this is going on he meets Lena again and they start to get closer; so much so that he joins her when she goes to Hawaii.Anybody expecting a traditional rom-com may be a little disappointed but those wanting something a little different should really enjoy this. Adam Sandler does a really good job as Barry; an unlikely romantic lead given the character's various personal problem, most notably his explosive temper. There is also something a little surreal about the character as he buys large quantities of pudding because he realises that the air-miles offered on the packs are worth far more than the puddings. Emily Watson does a solid job as Lena, it isn't hard to see why Barry fell for her. Mary Lynn Rajskub impresses as Barry's sister, and Lena's friend, Elizabeth; I was surprised she wasn't further up the cast list as she probably had the third largest part. There may not be obvious gags or witty one-liners but I still found this very funny in places. There is some material that might bother some people; notably a rather violent scene where Barry confronts his tormentors; this is fairly sudden but there is no dwelling on any injuries caused. Overall I'd certainly recommend this; I enjoyed it more than expected.
... View MoreAwful movie.Don't waste your precious time on this,worst characterization and do you know what is the biggest negative of this movie its background score,it just gave me a headache.It's not at all a romantic comedy movie it's a thriller.I just liked the ending of the movie that too OK compared to the remaining part of the film.
