a stepfather's point of view, 25 November 2003
Author: lindee11

This was the first film i've ever seen that addresses what a man goes through emotionally when dealing with all the ramifications of divorce, separation from his own children and blending families when he enters into a relationship with a woman with children of her own. It deals with what it must be like to assume the role of caretaker in another man's house, with another man's children while someone else is in his former home with his children. Women and children aren't the only ones who have complex feelings when families play musical homes.

solid acting, interesting story, good soundtrack, 31 August 2006
8/10
Author: Tom

I enjoyed watching this. First of all, it is very good in showing family problems, so much to the saddening effect. But the actors do a solid job, and through the film there are numerous moments that lighten up the general mood and I think the atmosphere is quite balanced. The ending comes off well.

I especially like the soundtrack. The music fits perfectly, also when it comes to details. For example, there is a scene with Mozart's Little Night Music (Eine Kleine Nachtmusik). This music, composed back in the 18th century, supports the acting in an impressive way. Too bad that the soundtrack loses its quality towards the end. Another con is the structure of the plot, there are some flashbacks that seem to be forced to add more tension. It does, but it is a tick too artificial.

Maybe the average rating of this film is correct, maybe I don't see the reasons for which many rated the movie so poorly. But I liked it a lot and I think you will too. Give it a try, don't hesitate!

Sad and Reality, 2 January 2004
10/10

Along the emotional lines of "Ordinary People", but not as good a script. Good acting by Daniels, Fawcett, and a young Drew Barrymore. I was not sure where it was going until the end. At that point, you think you've got it, and then they twist again. I own it and have seen it three times. Most would be satisfied with just one viewing. gb

Very sad, 19 June 1999
Author: Jewel-16 from Bålsta, Sweden

I thought that this movie had a very saddening effect, but i really liked the acting and you kinda get stuck in front of the Tv set, so i really recommend this movie.

Boring, very slow moving & uneventful, 9 August 1999
5/10
Author: Meredith-7 from Melbourne, Australia

This has to be one of the most boring films I have ever watched. It just did not capture my attention at all. For a start, it was billed as a comedy- which it was not- there was only one semi amusing scene near the end. But worst of all, nothing particularly interesting ever happens. The characters are not fully developed enough for you to care about them at any great length, although the actors were good in their roles, particularly Lukas Haas. Most of the storyline was very superficial, you could see that they were trying to play on a variety of human emotions- but they failed in most if not all cases. It played a lot like a pilot for a drama series that never made it into a full season of episodes. A total waste of time really, unless your analyse this for a social study class.
