| User ReviewRachel Mit was good to see Andy Garcia's young looking. do you think love can change people? could be a lot could be little for sure. but it is very hard to change people's personalities. |
| User ReviewKevin M. WAnother surprising film I've seen lately. You've probably never heard of this one: A ticket scalper (Andy Garcia) going nowhere in life figures he can turn his life around and win back his girlfriend by nabbing tickets to the Pope's address at Yankee Stadium. Yeah, I know. Still, give this one a chance, and you won't regret it. There's a freshness that is usually completely absent in most romantic comedies, ruined in part by an unbelievably bland MacDowell. Kudos to Garcia, though - you can't help but empathize and symapthize with his character. I mean, everybody wants proof that they exist. :) |
| User ReviewZaar DAndie is hot, but this pretty standard claptrap |
| User ReviewBruno VLike Andy and Andie is mmm , lovely movie with fine humor , not a surprising ending but beautifull , yes . SOMDVD |
| User ReviewJustin DThis guy seemed to have a hard time being a part of society. Toward the end he was finally able to exist! |
| User ReviewJames HI just didn't like this film. Part of the problem is I am not at all an Andy Farcia fan, he's doing his wannabe Al Pacino bit as usual. His character in the film is unappealing. It was slow moving and hard to sit through. |
| User ReviewAmy SI loved the idea of Andy Garcia in a romantic comedy, but the mix of Andie MacDowell and a mediocre script ruined it. |
