It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

I found myself watching this today and absolutely loved it. The chemistry between the actors are just fantastic. It doesn't sugar coat anything. Its just like life. Messy and fun and it shows that the best things in life aren't perfect but sometimes they are perfect for you. It definitely delights down to the very last minute when the credits role. Midler and Farina are brilliant and the sparks that fly between them are palpable. The surprise twists don't stop coming. I was laughing throughout the movie. The therapist was played great. Absolutely hilarious on how he over talks everything. I can't wait to watch it again and see all the little nuances I missed the first time around.

I can't believe they made this movie in 1997. It seems one of those 80's comedies. Which is not bad in itself, just the fact it somehow seems really dated. Everything seems to have done before. And audience have seen this many times before. Both Bette Midler and Dennis Farina have played many similar characters lots of times.Just within a few minutes you can guess what is going to happen. Script is predictable and clichéd, dialogs are cheesy straight from 80's. I am just surprised how this movie got to be made.The movie title itself serves as a warning. While watching this movie you also get that old feeling that you have seen it all before.

This movie has me very confused. Although I don't like watching it, I find myself putting it in the DVD player once a week. Then if finally dawned on me. The plot sucks, but the writing and the acting are absolutely superb. Bette Midler and Dennis Farina had such a chemistry going, it was hard to stop laughing.But you can't forget about the other acting in this movie. Bette and Dennis's current lovers are even more amazingly funny. I found myself wishing that they would be in the movie more, have more lines. Much like on "Will and Grace". Will and Grace are great, but come on, Karen steals the show. The show should be re-titled, "Karen and Jack.". Just have a role reversal, Will and Grace can be the sometimes in the show people, but Jack and Karen own it. And that's how I feel about this movie.
Wonderfully funny, just need to get through the borinnng, sloooow, plot.

I liked this film a lot more than I thought I would, being not particularly a fan of Bette Midler. But she was great in this movie. And Paula Marshall was fantastic. Dennis Farina and Danny Nucci turned in good performances also. The script was excellent. Definitely worth a rental. Grade B+
