The Family Man (2000)

Very well executed

That was an excellent one.

best movie i've ever seen.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

I'm not sure why but I always like this movie more than the person I'm watching it with. I've seen it multiple times and I love it every time. I believe that happens when you really like the acting and character development in a film. To me the acting was very well done. The story is great, nothing that hasn't been done before, but still a story I enjoy each time. Worth a look.

I love this move so much that it's not easy for me write an objective review. So I'll write a subjective one. A sort of a panegyric.I've seen this movie a couple of times. The last time I watched it was with a soon-to-get-married friend. I insisted on watching it. He was later thankful for it. I really believe this movie can improve your relationship with a romantic partner.I don't think anyone could've played Jack Campbell better than Nicolas Cage. He appeared funny to me even when that clearly wasn't his aim. The chemistry between Lea Leoni and Nicolas is amazing. It's as if this movie was based on their actual relationship. Jeremy Piven has done a great job playing Arnie - the buddy guy! The Family man is one of the rare movies which highlight the not-so-nice side of success and being on top in contrast to happiness and fulfillment family brings.Writers David Weissman and David Diamond didn't leave anything out when it comes to portraying the world in which parents live. How do you raise your kids, do a full time job, maintain relationship with friends, do household business, every night take your dog for walk, and, most importantly, build a great relationship with your spouse? Wouldn't all that business take away the time necessary to build THE career and life's comfort? We might think we don't need all of the above.And that's exactly what Jack Campbell had thought as well.

a great cast involved in this winter comedy set as a scrooge meets sliding doors with the director Brett ranter from xmen and his wonderful on song cast from Nicolas Cage ...

I liked this movie. What starts out as a light life change comedy turns into a drama with a message to all those in the rat race.Nicolas Cage and Tea Leoni play well against each other in a movie which is more than the some of it's parts. I was gently sucked in, then hooked by half way; and almost a little teary at the end.I thought that it was going to be like those body change movies, which are fun but have no substance. This is definitely better than the aforementioned and I recommend it to anyone of working age, especially those city lovers or even the reverse: suburbanites with a desire to seek their fortune in the big smoke.
