This is the best movie that Adam Sandler has ever done! Great acting, great story and great directions. The movie was very intense and even somewhat scary. The movie leaves off with a message for everyone.

One of my top 20 alltime. It is a beautiful love story with stellar performances by Sandler, the divine Emily Watson, the fabulous Hoffman and brilliant directing by PT Anderson. I understand that most typical hollywood movie goers aren't gonna like it, but some of us don't like typical hollywood movies and this film is for us. Poor ratings for this film are from people who wouldnt know a good film from a hole in the ground.

It's not worth a good comment normally Sandler does so much better what happened?

There are a lot of details in this movie that can easily be viewed as distractions - or even worse, as flakey, art-for-art's-sake pretension. The majority of people I've spoken to who have hated this film - because it's a film that elicits an impressively bipolar reaction from audiences, love or hate - seem to hate it because of the admittedly weird fluff with which the director chose to pepper the storytelling. I'll admit to this fact: If I hadn't known to pay attention before even stepping into the theatre, I may have felt the same way. So here is my warning and advice to all you viewers lucky enough to be going into this experience for the first time:Pay attention. The psychadellic, groovey '70's lightshow that mysteriously punctuates scene transitions? Watch how it changes along with Adam Sandler's character's development? Those Weird, inappropriate burst of anger? Keep in mind what happened a second before. Imagine the times you felt that way yourself. It all adds up in the end, and taken in context, is one of the most moving and romantic stories of new love you'll see on the screen. See, the trimming in this movie, the excesses, are necessary because of the character. Adam Sandler's character is chock full of weird neuroses, and as such, the film's style reflects the character. But pay attention: It's a story about loving oneself as well as getting the girl, and how they're a symbiotic relationship. It's about learning to channel your faults into something that benefits you, when those faults can very easily destroy you. It's about letting go and holding on at the same time, and it's worth your time... and attention..

If you are a regular movie watcher you will not understand this movie. This is for people who can open their minds to different ideas and concepts in life. I actually sat and watched this whole movie without movie, 'cause I enjoyed it soo much... best movie I have seen in a long time. Adam and Emily did a great jobs in both of their roles. Especially Adam, who brought out the characteristics of panic attacks, anxiety, depression all in one. I think one of his best roles yet... the love aspect awesome, cause it's not some oh I love you jump on me have sex type of thing... its soo honest clean and pure... very nice movie.

This is a great film- it's hysterically funny, subtle, sad, romantic, and just plain wonderful. The colours and music and cinematography are top-notch. Adam Sandler is terrific, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

This movie was very different. There will be people who really hate it, and those who will really love it. And me? I loved it. I like movies that have a nice style to it like magnolia and american psycho. If you want a unique style, check this movie out.

WOW! This movie has become my all time favorite movie of all time. The people who gave this movie low ratings are the ones that do not understand movies. They are the kind of people that only have the intellegence for "Dumb and Dumber". This movie is so smart that you wonder what kind of person could put it together. Only a genius like P. T. Anderson. This movie is very Dark and Lovely at the same time. The music is outstanding, the cinematogrophy is very unique and is it touched by a rainbow of color and light throughout the film which make it more quirky and "punchy". Even if you say you dont like the movie, it will be one you will never forget, which tells you right there how powerful it is. So dont waste your time if you're a dumb kid looking for an annoying spoof like the other Sandler movies. But if you like movies... real movies like "Magnolia", "Forrest Gump", and "Dancer in the Dark" check this one out. It's the Best Picture of the Year!

You call this a movie? There's no plot... no ending... just one sick man... not even worth renting it for a cent... Adam Sandler, come on you can do better then that... Writer, Director WAKE UP! According to me, this movie stunk. Of course this is just my opinion so if you like this type of situation then don't hesitate to see it and make your own opinion.
