SnoopyStyle Molly De Mora (Paula Marshall) is marrying Keith Marks (James Denton). She's reluctant to invite her divorced parents who hate and haven't seen each other for 14 years. Lilly Leonard (Bette Midler) is a self-obsessed actress. Dan De Mora (Dennis Farina) left her for Rowena (Gail O'Grady). Lilly brings along her boyfriend Alan (David Rasche) to the wedding. Keith hires photographer Joey Donna (Danny Nucci) without realizing that he's been hounding Lilly taking unflattering photos. It's a combustible mix. Dan and Lilly still have fuel for the fire.Farina is an unlikely rom-com lead. He and Midler do have plenty of combative energy. I don't understand Keith's despise of the forbidden relationship. I don't see it as that forbidden anyways. Marshall is good. Despite some early ugliness, Nucci grows on me. They become a charming second coupling. It would have been better if Lilly and Dan are forced into isolation which rekindles their romance. They basically jump into bed too quickly for me. This has its moments and a good cast. It's not a big hit but it works.
Adnap25 I know it was only a romantic comedy but this has been one of my favorite movies since the first time I watched it. I can never get enough of it. It's like Groundhog Day. This movie does not get annoying if I watch it a hundred times because I just love it so much. The acting is hilarious, I love the plot and the script is wonderful. And of course, who could complain about Danny Nucci?! Definitely one of my favorites! I love how Joey seems so annoying in the beginning. The audience is convinced not to like him yet when he starts opening up to her about taking the pictures and how he thought she was beautiful at her birthday party, it brings them closer. I have always thought this was the most romantic movie I have ever seen and I have yet to find one that has outshone it. But you know the saddest thing about this? I haven't even bought it on tape or DVD yet! *sighs* I really have to do that soon! Anyway, if you're just browsing and you don't know whether or not you should watch this, trust me, it's wonderful, you should!
Rayvyn I just caught this movie on cable. I'm not a really big fan of romantic comedies. I like them, it's just that "Natural Born Killers", "Love and a.45" and "One Night Stand"(Wesley Snipes & Nastassja Kinski". Those movies always involved trouble with romance. In some ways "That Old Feeling" involves danger in the form of the two main characters hate each other in the beginning. To make a long story short, they fall back in love and along the way are some pretty funny scenes if not predictable. Some parts of the movie are so predictable, I actually thought I was psychic because I knew exactly what would happen by the end of the movie. This movie's dialog is not great. There are some interesting characters like Roach, the paparazzi guy who follows the movie star around. The movie survives purely on pure force of personality. Bette Midler and Dennis Farina are great and they save this predictable mess. It's good to watch once but you will do just that, watch it once and never feel the urge to see it again.Rayvyn
dahhathaway This movie has me very confused. Although I don't like watching it, I find myself putting it in the DVD player once a week. Then if finally dawned on me. The plot sucks, but the writing and the acting are absolutely superb. Bette Midler and Dennis Farina had such a chemistry going, it was hard to stop laughing.But you can't forget about the other acting in this movie. Bette and Dennis's current lovers are even more amazingly funny. I found myself wishing that they would be in the movie more, have more lines. Much like on "Will and Grace". Will and Grace are great, but come on, Karen steals the show. The show should be re-titled, "Karen and Jack.". Just have a role reversal, Will and Grace can be the sometimes in the show people, but Jack and Karen own it. And that's how I feel about this movie. Wonderfully funny, just need to get through the borinnng, sloooow, plot.
