Full Plot Details

Melanie Parker, an architect and mother of Sammy, and Jack Taylor, a newspaper columnist and father of Maggie, are both divorced. They meet one morning when overwhelmed Jack is left unexpectedly with Maggie and forgets that Melanie was to take her to school. As a result, both children miss their school field trip and are stuck with the parents. The two adults project their negative stereotypes of ex-spouses on each other, but end up needing to rely on each other to watch the children as each must save his job. Humor is added by Sammy's propensity for lodging objects in his nose and Maggie's tendency to wander.

Movie Reviews

The Associated Press - 9/10 by Bob ThomasClooney proves himself to be a true movie star and romantic leading man. His charm, his energy, even his ease with children (one of any adult actor’s most terrifying challenges) carry One Fine Day into irresistibility.
Hartford Courant - 9/10 by Malcolm JohnsonCo-writers Ellen Simon and Terrel Seltzer bring sophisticated sensibilities to the film that add up to a '90s approximation of a screwball comedy.
Boston Phoenix - 9/10 by Rob NelsonPrivilege and coincidence have always been central to screwball comedy, but the speed of crosstown travel here rivals Die Hard 3 for plausibility.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Rita KempleyHappily, Pfeiffer and Clooney, now officially a movie star, not only click, they send off sparks.
USA Today - 8/10 by Mike ClarkOne Fine Day is two formulaic hours, but they do illustrate how two attractive leads and a lickety-split narrative can elevate meager material into something this side of bearability.
Austin Chronicle - 7/10 by Alison MacorFor those viewers who can relate to Melanie's and Jack's lives, One Fine Day offers light-hearted romantic fun, but for younger viewers the film may not quite hit the mark.
About.com - 6/10 by Fred TopelExcellent romantic comedy. Exciting story of adults trying to succeed in careers with the drawbacks of children.
ReelViews - 6/10 by James BerardinelliOne Fine Day has a few enchanting moments, such as a scene where Jack sweeps Melanie off her feet (literally), then splashes around in a large puddle of water. However, as a romantic comedy, this is a spotty affair because it's not really funny or romantic enough. Keeping the leads apart might work for something like Sleepless in Seattle, where the intention is to develop an old-fashioned, long-distance romance, but, in a movie like this -- one that's being pulled in so many directions that it's coming apart at the seams -- it's a mistake. For much of its running length, One Fine Day lacks focus and direction, and that makes it one fine mess.
Miami Herald - 6/10 by Jackie PottsOne Fine Day makes for sunny, pleasant fluff. Both stars are enjoyably breezy, and there's enough chemistry to deflect attention from the story's endless contrivances. The screenplay by Terrel Seltzer and Ellen Simon is full of energetic wisecracks. But it's jokey rather than actually funny most of the time.
Empire - 6/10 by Angie ErrigoMinus delightful stars, this would be laboured indeed. Thanks to them, it scrapes along as modestly appealing fluff.
