If you consider a just a Oliver Platt's character the movie pay for itself,he is a odd and a interesting case for psycho analysis,trying raising tomatoes properly,Neeson is another case,he has fear....Bullock don't encrease nothing,neither in sex scenes, but in general way the movie get some funny moments and survive most of all for Platt's performance....and a lot of stupid gangster!!Resume:First watch: 2017 / How many: 1 / Source: DVD / Rating: 7
... View MoreYup, as others have said you may not have had much chance to see it in the theaters, or if you did, you were mislead about what kind of movie you were going to see.You can't say it's NOT a rom-com, but it is very much more than that as well. A very robust set of other characters and circumstances all going on basically at the same time, and handled very well throughout the film.So what other ingredients are in this, you may ask? There is a touch of romance and comedy, but also intrigue, suspense, and action.Do yourself a favor and see this movie. Then, get those other friends of yours over to watch it. Highly enjoyable.

Well written, well acted, a bit slow in the editing. And the direction should have paced the scenes with more tempo. But generally one can say it's a true comedy film, not a movie. Either it was the recording or the mixing and maybe it's only the mastering - the ONLY negative is that it sounds lousy. Maybe it's just my DVD copy. The sound will never win an Oscar. But please ignore the comments and votes from the anally sensitive. This is a wonderful story and deserves to be seen and talked about.
... View MoreEnjoyed this film greatly, Liam Neeson,(Charlie), showed his great acting abilities in both comedy and drama through out this film. Charlie needed help in many ways and went to a head shrink and his group therapy friends managed to help him with Columbian drug lords and the mob, when things started to fall a part for Charlie. Charlie ran into Judy Tipp,(Sandra Bullock), who went along with his crazy ideas and got his mind off his problems by going to bed with her and making love quite often. There are scenes where Judy Tipp manages to get a tug boat in order to rescue Charlie and all his weird friends aboard. There are great helicopter pictures of Manhattan and the great skyline and our former Twin Towers. Sandra Bullock directed this picture and made this a very entertaining film. Enjoy!
