The opening scene is bad. Almost turned to something else. But as soon as the two leads meet, it perks up. I don't give the script writer much credit. The. Ending scene has no dialogue; instead it depends on a particular song playing over the 'action'. I wonder if getting the original hit version of "At Last" was what held this movie up for 2 years. HOWEVER, the actors saved the show, The character actors stole almost every scene they were in. The leads were ok, they did work well together, but the best friends were the best. Michael Rispoli (who I will always refer to as Joe Jr) was terrific. Olivia D'abo born in London did a NYC accent that occasionally slipped, but was also very likeable. My wife and I both enjoyed the movie and would have no problem watching it again. Unlike so many movies today, there is no one to hate in this one. Well, except Bobby Love.
