HotToastyRag Anyone out there remember Ed Burns films? Well, to protect his feelings, I'm sure lots of you out there raised your hands.Ed Burns was the Irish Catholic Woody Allen of the 90s, and while he still makes movies, he's not in his heyday anymore. She's The One was his best film, in my opinion, and if you rent it, you'll get to see the young, promising actresses Cameron Diaz and Jennifer Aniston, as well as Frasier's dad without his cane! (I told you this was a 90s flick) An Irish Catholic family with a gruff father, a particularly religious mother, and two competitive sons is thrown for a loop when both sons fall in love with the same woman. She's the one! The plot moves fast and has lots of twists along the way, and the 90s banter is priceless.I have a soft spot in my heart for this film, but I will admit it's a tad dated, so it would be best to put on your 90s goggles when watching it.

caseynicholson I recently discovered the song "Walls" after first hearing the Glen Campbell cover and then finding out that it was a Tom Petty song that is the main theme for this movie. I then learned that Petty put out an entire soundtrack worth of material for this film, and after listening to the soundtrack I decided to watch the movie so that I could have a better feel for what inspired the soundtrack--if it did at all.That said, I didn't exactly feel like the soundtrack and the movie went together, but I can kind of see how they do. The "Walls" song is about a man who has lost his wife or girlfriend, but has faith that things will still work out, I guess because "She's the One". That's not exactly what this film is about, though.So what is the movie about? A couple who fall in love and quickly marry only to find their new relationship mixed up in a complicated affair triangle that includes family members and exes. This is a movie that is about infidelity more than anything, really. And, perhaps it could be argued that it's about staying faithful to "the one" in the midst of such infidelity.All that said, I found this to be a good movie overall, thus the 7/10 stars. It's a film that is a little hard to put into a specific genre, though. It has a romantic comedy feel throughout, but there is an element of the film that just makes it a more heavy movie than the standard chick flick. The acting and the script is all very well done. There's probably nothing life changing about this movie, but it's worth the time to see just as pure and simple escapism for a couple of hours, and an engaging story that is entertaining even if not overly powerful. Thus my 7 star rating.

Bmore1984 Good job burying Aniston in the script, because she won't amount to much, and OD'ing us on whatever else is left. Not one genuinely funny moment. Too malicious for romance. Too lost for drama. I'll leave it as 90's puffery.The chemistry between Mickey and Hope, the couple we're suppose to cheer for, was non-existent. The brotherly relationship between Mickey and Francis was undercut, well... by the acting. Besides Aniston, the very little of her, this film provides nothing that works. What was this film trying to portray, what was the message, what was the point? Answer: its Sex In The City meets Friends minus the talent, the writing and the humor.

[email protected] I found this movie to be hilarious, I actually laughed out loud by myself! "Come on Dorothy, it's all over"! Hahahahaha, the repartee is fast and funny between the Fitzpatricks. Not to mention there are so many 'hot' babes in this movie. I vaguely recall somewhere in the back of my memory that I may have seen this movie before, but even if I had it doesn't matter because the laughs were fresh, new and satisfying. The almost 'infantile' banter between the brothers is genuinely hilarious. John Mahoney plays a very convincing role as the dubious patriarch who sees his boys as if they were perpetually 12 years old. The funniest part of it is, the boys unconsciously and unwittingly play right into his hands, at every twist and turn of the dialogue. Tune into this flick for some hearty laughter, silly shenanigans and some surprising plot twists.
