Adam Sandler is a ruined New York widower after his wife and kids are killed in a plane crash. His old college room mate, Don Cheadle catches up with him and tries to help get him back on his feet.
I like AS, I like his silly movies and always liked the sentimental touch he always tries to add. He’s no DeNiro perhaps but I think he does well in this (mostly) serious role. The film is of course a tad melancholy and as such I loved it ;) He does well here and I liked it as nuch as him in Punch Drunk Love. His portrayal of this sad and troubled man is very touching but is intermixed with sweet and often funny moments. Well worth a watch for those anti-team america moments!
Best moments: cried like a fool when he kisses his in-law;fab cameo from Keifer’s Dad as a sensible judge.
The soundtrack is fab and adds to the feel of the film well as it should do.
This may not quite be a DVD buy for me but it’s deffo a keeper on “the download”.
