    This has been one of my favorite movies for a long time.

    I have a new favorite movie and this is it! Patty Duke's son, Mackenzie Astin, is dreamy as the lead to Ione Skye's ideal love interest. Her vision of the perfect man was Frank Sinatra, and Mac enters the scene and captures her heart. A really fun story to follow with great characters, including Jennifer Aniston as Ione Skye's best friend. This independent charmer is a sleeper hit you won't want to miss.

    This movie is really great if you take it for what it is - a fun romantic comedy. It's actually kind of edgy for a 90's era Jennifer Aniston flick. Ione Skye is gorgeous as ALWAYS and everyone in the cast is terrific. When this was originally released a lot of my film-snob friends snubbed it but it's been one of my absolute favorites for years. I hope others will discover it too!

    If you've had a bad day, do yourself a favor. Pour a glass of wine, put on your dorkiest pajamas, make yourself some polenta (or delicious dinner of your choice) and watch this movie. It's anything but mediocre. You can thank me later.

    There are so many depressing and violent films around, that this film fills a big void for those who want to feel good after watching a movie. Although Ione Skye plays the girl who hasn't slept a full night since age six, and is a truly beautiful girl, her acting is not consistantly great. But Jennifer Aniston fills in with her excellent (and often underrated) supporting acting, as the friend of Skye, helping her to find the one man who will satisfy a dream she has of the type she wants for her love. ( Pardon me, but Ione Skye, with a few more pounds, would look a lot like Monica Lewinski.) The script and production is excellent and if you want a "sweet" ending, you've got. Looking at the film objectively, you know Jennifer Aniston should have played the lead. That ending could have been much more realistic. But it is worthwhile picture

    Good human interest theme with a couple of stories woven throughout, and laced with humor that holds your interest and leaves one feeling good with a "They all lived happily ever after." conclusion. Entertaining and uplifting. A truly feel good movie. Well done! Thank you!

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 21, 2003
    I must admit that I enjoyed this movie, it has an artistic sort of feel to it, however, it is quite feasable to be totally lost in the point of it all. It pretty much takes place around an italian orientated coffee house (not unusual for Jennifer Aniston, as we all know) and charts a love story of not so epic proportions. It's a good film to watch if your interested in films, but other than for a night in for the girls, it's not really the most thrilling or interesting of romances in cinema - Leighton X
