What is matt dillion doing in this movie?.......2007-02-11

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

Sweet, romantic movie.......2006-06-26

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.

She Let Mr. Wonderfull Get Away.......2005-12-26

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.

IT WAS CUTE!!.......2005-07-20

If you like romantic comedies, you will think Mr. Wonderful is cute. its not the best, but the acting was pretty good, although the Supporting Actors and Actresses was even better than the main characters. the plot wasnt really anything special but it was good enough. i recomend it for a one time viewing

Very cute!!!.......2004-07-10

This is a sweet and charming film; only the ending disappointed. The entire film and premise was so different from other romantic comedies, and the leads and supporting cast are fantastic, but the typical overly sugarcoated ending ruined it. I expected better considering the rest of the film. Overall though, this one is recommended over recent Hollywood romantic comedies. It definitely made me smile.
