This is a Rom/Com movie of the sort that Hollywood churns out on a regular basis. It follows the usual formula of these films, but is a bit light on both the romance and comedy. The romance between Skeeter (Sandler) and Jill (Keri Russell) never really has much chemistry and I can't imagine it ever getting off the ground based on their early exchanges. The comedy is also a bit light although there are a couple of funny sequences. The film contains supporting roles by Courtney Cox and Russell Brand in addition to the lead roles played by Sandler and Russel, so it will have a fairly wide appeal.
I'm sure people that are looking for a date movie will find what they want in the film, but if you are looking for something intelligent look elsewhere.
