Saw this one today by myself. Bigdog refused to go see an Adam Sandler movie. It was cute, cute, cute. Cute and very, very sweet. I was crying while I was laughing out loud. Okay, so it has some outlandish cartoonish features, it is just danged cute. The Hawaiian characters were delightful, as was Drew Barrymore.

A feel-good movie. Not a big screen must-see though. You can wait until it comes to the video store.

JuJu, how come you are all alone here??
I'll keep you company...
I had a hard time with the first hour of the movie..not cuz of the goofy Sandler and Schnider stuff , cuz I like their stupid stuff, but because of the plot.. I just couldnt buy the whole set up of her days with the family, or the idea of him having a romance with someone in her shape, and then i went to pee in the pivotal point of the movie.. BUT... i have to say that i really turned around the last hour.. It actually ended up being super romantic and brings a bucket of tears to your face..It's not predictable, the scene after he sings on the boat is beautiful (and having missed some of the movie, i didnt even know anything about the significance of the song on the boat) Sorry this is cryptic, but i am avoiding spoilers... People say this is drew barrymore's movie, but i thought that adam sandler' character's actions were really inspirationally romantic... i know, you are all saying that i have lost my mind... that its just a stupid adam sandler movie, but after an hour of annoyance, i ended up being moved..

I went to see this movie when I was on my trip and I thought it was pretty cute. I usually have problems with Adam Sandlers movies holding my attention, but this one was good. I teared up at the end, which was completely unexpected! I found the things her family did each day a bit unbelievable as well. It sure was nice to see such beautiful scenery throughout a movie though!
