50 First Dates
Dir: Peter Segal
2004
***
If you Ignore Rob Schneider's over the top character and Sean Astin's rather weak acting, 50 First Dates is actually a very sweet and well written romantic comedy. For me to say I actually enjoyed an Adam Sandler film is rare indeed but with the right script and direction I think he can be good. There is a genuine tenderness to the wacky idea and the romance never comes second to the comedy or vice versa.
