I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Anyone out there remember Ed Burns films? Well, to protect his feelings, I'm sure lots of you out there raised your hands.Ed Burns was the Irish Catholic Woody Allen of the 90s, and while he still makes movies, he's not in his heyday anymore. She's The One was his best film, in my opinion, and if you rent it, you'll get to see the young, promising actresses Cameron Diaz and Jennifer Aniston, as well as Frasier's dad without his cane! (I told you this was a 90s flick) An Irish Catholic family with a gruff father, a particularly religious mother, and two competitive sons is thrown for a loop when both sons fall in love with the same woman. She's the one! The plot moves fast and has lots of twists along the way, and the 90s banter is priceless.I have a soft spot in my heart for this film, but I will admit it's a tad dated, so it would be best to put on your 90s goggles when watching it.

Growing up my dad had the soundtrack for this movie. I listed to it quite a bit and really grew to love Tom Petty's music. The other day I was shuffling through my soundtracks and found it again and decided to see if I could find the movie online.Sadly, the music seems to be the only good thing about the movie. The characters are either morose, malicious, or just maniacal. I couldn't relate to any of them.Do yourself a favor and just download the soundtrack off itunes or something.

An unlikeable film about unlikeable people - never a recipe for movie success! Leaping straight into a scenario in which one brother is having an affair and the other gets hitched to a girl he picks up in his taxi, it has no initial character development and leaves no option for the viewer but to think, "What a bunch of *****!" In every scene cigarettes are stuffed into the characters' hands; but instead of adding a touch of working class realism it looks fake and, to this viewer, annoying. John Mahoney plays the father who, because of his old-fashioned sexist opinions, we are supposed to frown upon. But I found myself frowning at all of them. Are we supposed to care about these people or wonder how quickly their beautiful actor skin is going to get ruined by the tar they are inhaling?

While I can't say there's any real moral compass to the storyline (with everyone cheating on everyone else), if nothing else EDWARD BURNS can consider himself a Long Island Woody Allen--because the story told in brief vignettes is exactly the sort of tale that Allen likes to spin about ditsy relationships and dysfunctional human beings.It may lack the more subtle wit and dry humor found in some of Allen's works, but it's safe to say that if this had been penned by Allen Hollywood would be jumping all over it with awards.As it is, EDWARD BURNS as the older brother--a cabbie aptly described by another as probably the only English-speaking cab driver in the city of NY--is excellent, even if some of his motivations aren't crystal clear, like the casual decision to go to Paris with his girlfriend when both of them are clearly broke. MIKE McGLONE is fine as his financially solvent but mentally challenged brother who works on Wall Street but is hopelessly in love with a trashy blonde, CAMERON DIAZ, in another one of her bubble-gum roles.None of it rises above the level of a good TV script and the language is pretty salty throughout, dealing as it does with SEX almost exclusively. But Burns directs it at a good pace and it moves briskly to a satisfying conclusion which finds him reunited with his girlfriend after a series of misunderstandings.A pleasant way to spend an hour-and-a-half but don't expect anything great. Burns and McGlone were much better in THE BROTHERS McMULLEN the previous year.
