This was one of the best movies of the year. Adam Sandler took a chance with his acting skills and moved away from the comedic roles that he has normally done in the past. He was terrific in this movie and... Full review

Adam Sandler is no longer a one genre guy in my books. I thought he was okay in many of his other lighter movies such as "Spanglish" but he goes to a whole other level with this role. His transformations within... Full review

A movie I wouldn't mind seeing again. The film has so much potential that even the slight misdirection of the director couldn't totally cause it to lose it's quality. Disappointingly, Adam Sandlers "emotionally disconnected" character seems more of an autistic or... Full review

while there are a few missteps in the plotting (Cheadle's dealings with a patient-come-sexual-predator-come-stalker-come-potential-blind-date-for-Charlie, played by the ever weird and off-putting Saffron Burrows, never really make much sense), the film is the kind of strong, adult drama produced all too rarely in Hollywood.....gets excellent performances from the men playing them.....Don Cheadle is characteristically brilliant as Alan, finding all his bruised optimism, geniality and quiet desperation....Rei ...

The good news is that this is one-half of a terrific film.
The film's other great failing is Pinkett Smith.
Also good is Donald Sutherland
The bad news is that Adam Sandler is in the other half.
