Mr. Wonderful (1993)

Romantic comedy centering around a New York con edison worker who gets an unexpected second chance at first love.

a romantic movie

This is a great date movie that really shows how bad a guy wants to get to know a girl. Guy has girl,loses girl,sees girl happy with the new guy,and then wants her back again. This movie works in that this guy,(Matt Dillon), is thinking more with his heart then with his head. He obviously doesn't do anythind stupid or dangerous. He is only a romantic who wants to have his ex-wife back into his life. Nothing wrong with that. Watch the movie and see what happens. December 24, 2008

Very Good Romantic Comedy

This is a great story. This is not just a chick flick. It is a love story that guys can get into. Like Jerry McGuire this film views love as much from the guy's standpoint as the girl's. April 19, 2008

What is matt dillion doing in this movie?

The plot is boring. Dont watch this movie it drones on. Matt dillion is too talented and this movie does nothing with him. February 11, 2007

Sweet, romantic movie

With so much on dvd and cable now I'm catching up with some old movies. This flick could be considered a chick flick. The leads do a credible job but just didn't have that magic that makes movies like this work. The plot is of course almost ridiculous, but you have to ask yourself if you find that you are rooting for Sciorra's and Dillon's characters to get together. If so, then maybe the movie did it's job. Personally I found Dillon's characters to be superficial. His only goal was to invest in a bowling alley. Sciorra has more depth but then her character is involved with her married professor. Parker makes the most out of her role as Dillon's girlfriend who realizes that he still loves his ex-wife. Still the movie carried the romantic notion that 2 people in love will find their way back to each other. Not stellar, but if you're in the mood this may fill the bill. June 26, 2006

She Let Mr. Wonderfull Get Away

Although i enjoyed most of this movie, not even minding Matt Dillion's hard-to-swallow alimony dilemma. William Hurt was never a serious contender for Annabella's next true love, but when Vincent D'Onofrio got up onstage and sang "I Say A Little Prayer" for those few magic monments with Annabella, well, any idiot woman would have fell in love with him. Sorry, but it takes a real man to get up onstage in front of your co-workers and sing off key! The chemistry between these two in the short minutes they shared in the movie far surpassed all the time spent with the Gus/Matt. The ending was a real letdown. December 26, 2005
