**Great laughs, ridiculously fun characters, and a sweet story make 50 First Dates a fantastic date night movie.** Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore bring their zany chemistry back together again to make my favorite Adam Sandler movie and one of the most entertaining RomComs a couple could enjoy. 50 First Dates delights with its ridiculous and heartwarming characters. Rob Schneider and Sean Astin’s characters are by far the most outrageous and most fun parts of the film. The far-fetched premise of 50 First Dates perfectly lends itself to some hilarious moments and, ultimately, an endearing story of love overcoming even the most challenging of obstacles. 50 First Dates perfects the Adam Sandler formula with extremely satisfying and humorous results.
A harmless feel-good romantic comedy with Adam Sandler on usual form as a bit of a commitment-phobe. That is, until he meets "Lucy" (Drew Barrymore") and he really thinks he has found true love. The snag is that she has some pretty serious short-term memory issues and so each time they meet, he has a sort of first date groundhog day to get through. This is a bit of a one joke movie, though some of the daily variations inject a little extra to the, sometimes laboured, prevailing theme. Decent enough performances from the leads - with a strong supporting cast (including Dan Ackroyd, Sean Astin & Rob Schneider) - make this a watchable, if forgettable rom-com.
