Rating: Summary: Love & marriage Review: It's interesting to watch the famous actresses in their old movies where they were just starting up & almost incognitos. I remember seeing Cameron Diaz first in My Best Friend's Wedding & I am not quite sure which movie was shown first, either this one or that. But definitely, she faired much better in the other film. I agree with one reviewer, Cameron flashed her smile quite often in this film...maybe not because she really lacked the necessary acting skills...but maybe more of being a novice in the field & still did not know what was exactly expected of her. (But look at her now!) She was also more chubby back then but cuter. Jennifer Aniston looked the same, acted the same (e.g. Friends stints)but just as foxy & sophisticated.As for the plot itself, it was sensible. It focused on relationships --- between brothers, between father & sons, between married couples & between ex-es. I guess the moral fiber was there & the conversations were the backbone of the movie. Maybe the reason why other viewers felt this movie was a bit dragging is because they expected a lot of senseless twists - whether it be funny, sexual or what have you. Listening is the key to appreciating this film.

Rating: Summary: Boring! Took 1.5 hours for a 45 minute story - poor plot. Review: Not enough interest to hold my attention. Jennifer Aniston is one of my most favorite actresses and I try not to ever miss her. However, one of her greatest and most positive attributes and assets is her beautiful legs - they are the best in Hollywood! In this movie, there was not even one view of them. She wore slacks or to the floor dresses the whole movie. I would not recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys looking at Jennifer and is facinated by her, such as in Picture Perfect. No comparison. See Picture Perfect!
Rating: Summary: I LOVE THIS MOVIE Review: Nuff said. This movie rocks. The plot is good and so realistic, least in my shoes it is, and I think the acting is so awesome. Cameron Diaz actually looks like a normal person instead of an anorexic 5 year old boy like she usually does. If she only knew how hot she used to be. The dad in the movie is just awesome and so is Francis....those actors did very well in their roles and mmmm, I love the accents.
Rating: Summary: It's One Worth Watching Review: The script is sometimes funny because of the conflict between two brothers from different worlds. They are "in love" with the wrong woman most of the time. Cameron Diaz is beautiful but sometimes you feel that she flashes that smile to cover her lack of acting skills. Jennifer Aniston is just the opposite: she is pretty but she concentrates her energy on her acting. The picture has more drama than some seem to pick up on. This is not just a funny film. It says alot about our family and social values today. Burns does a good job on this and his acting and Aniston's make it worthwhile to see.

Rating: Summary: just for Cameron Diaz Review: the story is good, but sometimes boring. Cameron Diaz acts as weel as always, and Jennifer Aniston too. without Diaz, I rate this movie 3 stars.
Rating: Summary: Good buy Review: The story is just a little boring, I found myself not being very attentive at times. It's not very original and I wouldn't have bought it if there wasn't Cameron Diaz. It's a pity she doesn't appear more often. The end is a bit of a surprise. Overall this was quite a good buy, I liked it.
Rating: Summary: A very stupid and worthless movie Review: This is "The Brothers McMullen" with Hollywood influence. I expected much more. Very predictable dialogue with Burns' character this time around coming across as sickening instead of interesting. Too much Hollywood and maybe Burns isn't as creative as we all thought. The performances are fine, but the material just isn't that great.
