Long gone are the days when I considered myself a romantic but that doesn't prevent me from enjoying this charming romantic comedy to a degree, even though it is a genre of film that I used to like better when I was younger. For a romantic comedy this one is fun and has some charm. It is romantic without being too lame or mushy stuff, although it still is cheesy at times.
George Clooney and Michelle Pfeiffer have perfect chemistry. So have the two kids, as good in their respective roles as the adults are on theirs.
Despite all the fast pace and daily rush subject this films deals with, it still has room for classic humor, romance and a certain nostalgic/classic feeling to it thanks to oldie songs and the excellent scenario of New York city, making that city look perhaps better than it really is, especially now after the horrifying events of 11th September 2001.
George Clooney and Michelle Pfeiffer would make a good couple in real life, just like Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner would. Their characters's rivalries are funny although they become frustrating after a while, but not profane or sadistic, they're just normal (if unnecessary) rivalries.
This should please most fans of romantic comedies and might as well please (to a degree) some who are not into this type of film.
