highly overrated movie!!
28 June 2006
To start this of I have to admit that i watched the movie in the (dubbed) German version which might be a reason why I could not catch on to this particular piece. One thing is for sure Adam Sandlers acting is superb although I cant understand why this one is supposed to be his best performance. I think he is way better in "Click" an even better in "Spanglish". If you are into good cinematography this should be your choice because it really has some great pictures in it. I personally disliked the psychedelic(very colorful)bits in between different scenes though-I guess thats a matter of personal taste. The whole story kind of has a slow pace and is in some parts utterly unrealistic (the telephone thing) and the Soundtrack is quite annoying from time to time.I think this supposed emphasize the Main Character's state of mind but I feel that it made the Movie hard to watch. I you want to watch a good movie of this Director go watch "Boogie Nights"
