REVIEWS

Review by Steve (posted on 30-Oct-2007)

A suprisingly good romantic comedy. For the first 30 minutes, I kept thinking that this should have been Greg Kinnear in the lead. Carell pulled it off beautifully, and showed much broader range than previous films. As a widowed father of three young daughters, he had depth, wit, and pathos. Juliette Binoche provided an atractive, and intellegent partner. I hope that she continues to act in more American films. Though predictable, the script used the strong cast to advantage, and allowed for several nice little side moments. John Mahoney, and Diane Weist as the parents were spot on. All three daughters rounded out the cast.
