ROMANTIC...POIGNANT...HEARTBREAKING... March 23, 2003 Lawyeraau (Balmoral Castle) 26 out of 27 found this review helpful
This film is an unlikely romance that works on many levels. Deftly directed by Tony Bill who shows a penchant for handling delicate sentiments as if they were gossamer threads, this film is truly one of the most truly romantic that I have seen. That this is so, despite that many of the most romantic moments take place in a downtown Minneapolis diner, a dingy basement apartment, the front porch of a house in a blue collar, working class neighborhood, or in an old dilapidated clunker of a car, is a testament to the ability of the director. pMarisa Tomei is luminous as Caroline, the Minneapolis waitress with self-esteem problems who looks for love in all the wrong places, before finding it right where she works. She imbues Caroline with just the right measure of street smarts, working class edge, and little girl vulnerability. She is a needy, though nice, young woman who desperately wants to love and be loved. Unfortunately, the guys she meets tend to treat her as a one night stand. The sensitive and romantic Adam, the reticent and quirky busboy who works the midnight shift with Caroline, is just what the doctor ordered.pChristian Slater gives his best performance ever as Adam who becomes Caroline's veritable knight in shining armor. An orphan with a disability that he cloaks with an intriguing story, Adam is a true romantic hero. His quiet sincerity, delicate sensibilities, and apparent contentment in worshipping from afar touch Caroline, tugging at her heart strings. You see, he treats her as if she were a princess rather than as a strumpet. Christian Slater's sensitive and moving performance in a difficult role strikes just the right note. I would bet that nearly every woman who watches this film succumbs to his charms and finds herself half falling in love with him.br brThe film seems to tell the viewer that once one has love in one's grasp, hold it tight, as one never knows what the fates have in store. Though the ending may be somewhat predictable, it will not stop the viewer from needing a hanky. This is a wonderful film with excellent performances that will greatly appeal to those viewers with a romantic streak in their hearts. Beautifully directed with superlative performances by Marissa Tomei and Christian Slater, it is a film that merits being in one's personal collection.
the sweetest film ever made May 3, 2005 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
when i watched this film i expected a complete rom-com cliche however this film had me on a emmotional rollercoaster from happy to sad. although the ending had me near hysterical i could watch it again and again. superbly acted and directed this film should be mandatory for emmotional education. if this doesnt make you cry then you need studied!
