How many just 'stumble' onto this?


I just turned on USA network, to see what was on, saw Meg Ryan-romantic comedy-Tim Robbins-huh? Six Days Seven Nights? (okay, got actors mixed up)-Albert Einstein. Talking with Matthau's voice. Okay. Just came online to check it out, didn't know Matthau was already gone (RIP), found I.Q. on his page. The plot sounds intriguing and I think it could be cute, like others said. Just saw Tony Shaloub. Huh. Anyone with similar stories?

I've heard of this movie before and I've seen bits and pieces but I actually forgot all about it and though Andie MacDowell was in it for some reason. Watching it today on USA Network was basically for the first time. It was cute. Not a great romantic comedy or anything, but there were funny parts.

I saw this movie for the first time in 11h grade chemistry. I loved it. But I'm a sucker for cute romantic comdies. If you need a mood booster, then this movie is for you. A young Tim Robbins is adorable, Meg Ryan her usual quirky self, and Walter Matthou is amazing as usual (RIP). I have this on DVD and watch it when I want to be cheered up, b/c that is exactly what it does. it is a bright movie, set in an 'idealistic" time. As you watch the film you will find yourself thinking, "wow, that looks like a great place and time to live." I recommend this movie. yes, the plot is a little messy, but you will walk away satisfied.

The exact same thing happened to me. I randomly turned to USA network and happened upon the movie. I had to research it and found the plot pretty cool.

My teacher had the sub show it to us while he was gone. My friends and I all thought that it was a cute romance-comedy.

I actually saw the trailer on television before this movie went to the movie theater (I was ten years old back in 1994) and thought that the movie was stupid. So stupid that I wanted to watch this movie to see just how stupid the movie really is. I ended up waiting for the movie to come out to video (DVD wern't being used yet) and watched and have watched this movie several times since. I subscribe to Netflix and and thinking of watching this movie again if I can watch on instant watch becasue I don't feel like waiting for the movie to come in the mail on DVD.

My apartment complex gets library service every three weeks and the librarian included this as one of the DVDs she brought last Monday. I grabbed it and will be showing it to my movie group Saturday night.

Life, every now and then, behaves as though it had seen too many bad movies
