Long, detailed film about a dozen or so characters attempting to make connections in a world governed by chance. Brilliant script, direction and acting make this a must-see event, both funny and touching. Aimee Mann contributes hauntingly beautiful music, and Anderson again displays the depths of his talent. Two sequences, the "singalong" and "storm", are classics, and Cruise, Moore, Walters, and Hoffman offer supremely excellent work in a film piled high with inspired acting.
Underrated comedy about three divorced women getting even with the men who left them. Hawn, Midler, and Keaton are a perfect trio, with great timing and delivery. Ridiculous set pieces are nevertheless fun, and the film actually has a few serious comments about modern divorce and society's treatment of age and women. Overall, though, a very enjoyable and funny film, with three lovely actresses displaying their considerable talents very well.
Powerful, ambitious career woman inherits a baby, which causes her to rethink what's important in her life. Sentimental film is really a yuppie fantasy, but an effective one, with Keaton appearing in nearly every scene and carrying the film with ease. Adorable baby and some fine passages of dialogue make this an extremely appealing diversion from "real-life".
