Review:
I am so in-love with Emily Watson.. And she does a fantastic job in this movie! And so does Adam Sandler. He puts himself on the map with this movie. This movie proves that he can be a serious actor, and he does an incredible job at that.

This movie ... it really gets you tense! The director did a great job of making the audience feel the same emotional stress and tension the main character feels.

It is really a beautiful movie. I wasn't sure what I expected out of it, but I know it wasn't much, it definately exceeded any expectation that I had.

I definately recommend this ... even (especially if!!) you are not an Adam Sandler fan.

It is romantic, full of charm, hilarious, sad, full of emotion.
It is a very fulfilling movie.

Take the time to see it!
