• This movie is sweeter than candy. But it is a tad to long to be delicious.

    It's reflexions on "real life" with it's up's and down's is unbearably boring, mostly due to Cruise's soul less effort.

    What works here is Renée Zellwegger. Her bittersweet performance adds the very welcome drop of reality in this pretending to be realism romantic disappointment.

    She saves this film from being unwatchable - she and the fine dialogue together with Cuba Gooding Jr.'s perfect supporting role makes this an alright film.
