Critic Reviews

  • Wally Hammond, Time Out

    Quite what age group this soft-centered entertainment is aimed at is hard to divine.

  • Rex Reed, New York Observer

    Stupid, coarse and abysmally unfunny.

  • Laura Sinagra, Village Voice

    Ends up making you pine for Lucy's gift of forgetting.

  • Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

    This movie paints itself into a corner from which it cannot emerge without becoming an utter disaster as far as I'm concerned.

  • Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

    Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore shine in this sweet, flirty comedy about a man who falls for a woman with short-term memory loss.

  • Alexander D


    Adam Sandler's 2004 rom-com (and 2nd with Drew Barrymore) is colorful, eccentric, sad, and hilarious. When I went to watch this, I wasn't sure about it for two reasons: a) I'm not a huge fan of romantic comedies; and b) as it is a comedy about a woman suffering from… More
