Review

A romantic comedy from director Andrew Bergman (The Freshman) with a rather poor script and not enough fun fillers in between. The trio of Nicolas Cage, Sarah Jessica Parker and James Caan try to keep us engaged, but they get very little help from Bergman, particularly Parker whose empty character is merely tossed back and forth between the two male leads in more annoying than charming fashion. The film was something of a success at the box office.
