If you like this genre, you'd have to agree that this is a fantastic dark comedy. It's not slapstick or gross-out--just an interesting story with lots of irony and lots of twists. I loved this movie because it's so unpredictable and things go from bad to worse all because of a questionable decision made at the beginning of the story. This is not "the greatest movie ever made" (see earlier review), but it definitely doesn't stink. It's very clever and you will probably want to see it again to pick up on some of the subtleties.
I was very pleasantly surprised because I hadn't heard of it at the theaters and yet it was such a treat to watch. In my opinion, this was much more enjoyable and creative than There's Something About Mary. In fact, I think it's Cameron Diaz's best movie. If you like her work, you owe it to yourself to rent it. Harvey Keitel is also excellent as the husband.
And if you're reading this Cameron, will you marry me? :-)

I cant beleive im the first person to review this film. Its so about time it was released on DVD. Well Art House movies dont always get my attention but this flick is brilliant. Harvey Keitel and Cameron Diaz dazzle in the story about a high profile judge who weds a previous defendant in one of his court cases, though she is at least 30 years his junior!! Things just seem to get tougher for Diaz as the movie goes on to hide her ex (dead)lover in their house on a beautiful island off the Boston coast.
The scenery is fantastic, the acting superb, this movie will take you away from the everyday. Soundtrack is excellent. Enjoy

Garbage
The worst acting I've ever seen and a ridiculous, totally predictable plot. Harvey Keitel has reached a new low, and the rest of the cast need to go back to acting school.

Funny! Dark Humor
I don't remember if this movie was critically aclaimed or not (somehow doubt it) but it has all the right stuff to make it one of your favorites. I highly recommend it,

Good Humor Movie
I love movies that make me laugh and this one did. Harvey Keitel was great and very funny. Cameron Diaz was good too, though I fail to see her "beauty". Read more

Good movie; Great opening theme
I recall "Head Above Water" as an amusing farce. It wasn't/isn't really what could be called personal best work for Harvey Keitel, Cameron Diaz or any of the supporting players... Read more

The movie is good but a little out there. It was delivered timely and it was exactly what I ordered.

As I'm in S.Korea and the cable programming is quite unpredictable I've had the misfortune of coming across this movie about 10 times in the last month. It is rather pitiful. Read more

An overdose of bad luck
Don't try to see anything logical in that film. It is just a big joke. Some women are like that. All men die around them, kill themselves, kille one another, in one word drop dead. Read more
