5/10
Average Movie But Exceptional Acting From Barrymore, Murphy, Zahn
6 January 2003
I enjoyed this movie more than I thought I would. A true story presented in an easy and humorous way. Lots of funny moments along with some emotional points. 5 / 10 . Not a very important movie to talk about.

The important point is, Three main characters are wonderfully played by Barrymore, Murphy and Zahn. This is a great step for Ms. Barrymore. She has this God-given charm few people have. She makes even the most terrible movie bearable solely with her appearance. In this movie she also shows that she is a first class actress. Unfortunately she didn't have much chance to show her talent in acting before, mostly because producers (or maybe herself too) just wanted to use her charm and box office potential not acting talent. I hope this movie will be a first and we'll see her in more pictures like this where she can show she is a complete actress, not just another beautiful Hollywood chick. I know she is gorgeous and stuff, but the girl can act! Who knows? She may even get an Oscar soon (if she wants to get one of course!!)

Brittany Murphy and Steve Zahn are very talented actors. They can play every kind of role easily and successfully. But that's it. They just don't have what Drew Barrymore has. Few people have it anyway...
