I rate it a 4 for the humore involved, and how much growing up couples have to do before they become parents. January 7, 2008

A widely overlooked John Hughes classic

For any fans of John Hughes, this is a must for the collection. This is a wonderful, heart-warming film. Guys should not be swayed by the title - this is NOT a chick flick. The story goes to the heart of what many men go through with their first (and sometimes only) child. Just a wonderfully written and acted movie. Kevin and Elizabeth were perfectly cast in this film. Enjoy. January 2, 2008

An overlooked 80's classic

This movie holds a special place in my heart. When we were living together, my then fiancee-now wife, and I found it on cable, and we saw so many parallels between the characters and ourselves that we just kept watching it. The movie helped me to understand that what we were feeling about life, and marriage, and eventually kids was normal and on some level, foolish. The movie is whimsical and at the same time deals with the anxieties in a normal, non-glamorous way-as if we are watching real people-but I do love the lawnmower "ballet".
The soundtrack is killer, especially Kate Bush & Gene Love Jezebel.
When our first was born via C-section, "This Woman's Work" just kept playing over and over in my head-just a beautiful and poignant song that just captures that moment perfectly. July 21, 2007

One of my All Time Favorite Movies

This was a movie I watched over 10 years ago, but it has stayed with me and remains as one of my best-loved movies.

For all of us who have made the transition from adulthood to marriage to fatherhood and looking for that elusive Dummies' guidebook to help us along the way, this movie will have great resonance for you.

The inspired pairing of Kevin Bacon with Elizabeth McGovern as the happy couple and the incredibly suave Alec Baldwin as the covetous "best friend" sets the show up for an often hilarious but perceptive view of life and the choices we make. Look out for a great song by Kate Bush, written specially for the movie, played out against the backdrop of an anguish-ridden Kevin Bacon waiting outside the operating theater as Elizabeth McGovern undergoes emergency surgery. Don't miss this move! July 9, 2007
