With generous amounts of good luck and good timing, 50 First Dates set an all-time box-office record for the opening weekend of a romantic comedy; whether it deserved such a bonanza is another issue altogether. It's a sweet-natured vehicle for sweet-natured stars Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, and their track record with The Wedding Singer no doubt factors in its lowbrow appeal. But while the well-matched lovebirds wrestle with a gimmicky plot (she has no short-term memory, so he has to treat every encounter as their first), director Peter Segal (who directed Sandler in Anger Management) ignores the intriguing potential of their predicament (think Memento meets Groundhog Day) and peppers the proceedings with the kind of juvenile humor that Sandler fans have come to expect. The movie sneaks in a few heartfelt moments amidst its inviting Hawaiian locations, and that trained walrus is charmingly impressive, but you can't quite shake the feeling that too many good opportunities were squandered in favor of easy laughs. Like Barrymore's character, you might find yourself forgetting this movie shortly after you've seen it. --Jeff Shannon
Customer Reviews:
A comedy that delivers the funny with some unexpected warmth and charm..........2007-06-25
In the long line of men who act like children Adam Sandler is probably the most successful. Here, with `50 First Dates' he gives us a good reason as to why. Coupled with the talented Drew Barrymore he wonderfully crafts a funny yet sincere romantic comedy that whops a wallop of a tear jerking ending. The chemistry between the two stars is impeccable and believable despite the beauty factor of Barrymore and the goofy factor of Sandler. They work wonderfully together and Barrymore has proven to get the best out of Sandler for the second time. Arguably their first pairing in `The Wedding Singer' is a better movie, but that's arguable since this little gem is just as funny and just as sweet.
The story is one that could have gone either way in the genre department. Barrymore's character Lucy is a beautiful Hawaiian native who attracts the attention of playboy Henry Roth, a native who entertains tourist women with good times and one night stands and loves the bachelorhood he's built for himself. Lucy is different though, she's otherworldly to Roth in a way, so much different than the girls he's used to being with. Lucy's main difference though is not anything Henry would have expected. Lucy has no short term memory. In fact she lives everyday as if it were the same day, going to sleep and waking up on her fathers birthday, the day she suffered a horrendous accident that caused her to lose her ability to remember anything after that point. This same plotline could have made a brilliant drama, but I'm glad they went funny with this one.
After Roth finds out Lucy's problem he makes a special effort each day to make her fall in love with him again, not for the sheer satisfaction of the chase but because there's something about Lucy that he can't let go of. He loves this girl. At first her father and brother are indifferent to the idea, opposed even, but when they see the positive effect that Henry is having on Lucy they decide that maybe this isn't such a bad idea.
Adam Sandler, while still giving the audience the slapstick and comedy they are used to, delivers a more mature performance than most of his other comedic films. His relationship with Barrymore's character is much more sympathetic then in previous films and is one the audience can get behind and cheer for. Barrymore though upstages Sandler every step of the way delivering an on point comedic performance that will make any fan proud. She's beautiful, sweet, sincere and hilarious. The supporting actors all do a fine job, Rob Schneider delivering most of the big laughs as Ula the pot smoking father of a small tribe of children. Blake Clark and Sean Astin are good as Lucy's father and brother and Pomaika'i Brown is hilarious as `tattoo face', the chief at the local restaurant where Lucy and Henry meet.
There are some one-liners in this film that almost take away from the effortless hilarity of the balance of the film. Dan Aykroyd has resorted to painful roles and this is one of them, a role littered with dialog that's hard to listen to without cringing, and that Hawaiian native who gives the audience language lessons is more than annoying. Aside from this minor downfall the audience will have a great time watching Henry's pathetic attempts at swooning Lucy, Ula's hilarious attempts at helping him, not to mention his pathetic advice, but I'm sure nothing will give the audience more pleasure than trying to decide just what gender Henry's horny associate really is!
Falling in love for the first time, everyday, for the rest of your life and maybe even crying... .......2007-06-09
After "The Wedding Singer" the Sandler-Barrymore duo do it again with their wonderful on-screen chemistry and an adorable story. The movie also makes you think philosophically. Actually many people in life whose actions are still very mechanical and robot like, live a life as Drew does in this movie. However unlike Drew there are none to tell these people what's wrong with their lives. However it is also tragic to think that one day she has to wake up somewhere in her 60's and realise that her father died and then relive that everyday. The same feeling would multiply if more of her loved ones were to die before her. The other thing to imagine is that someone ought to ensure her daily treatment continued till she died.
Then there are those unforgettable numbers from the 80's, particularly "Lovesong" and "Friday I'am in love" by the amazing, The Cure, "Drive" by The Cars, "Hold me now" from the Thomson Twins, The Police's "Every breath You take" and Spandau Ballet's "True" which was also featured in "The Wedding Singer". Most of these numbers this time are played as cover songs by newer artistes making the soundtrack to this movie another big seller. "Could you be loved" the original by Bob Marley is retained though. And like "The Wedding Singer" there's that adorable song from Adam Sandler as well.
Hawaii is pictured so beautifully that the movie literally promotes tourism for this lovely island.
Several other characters also deserve praise. Henry's Hawaiian Friend, Lucy's brother (played by the guy who plays Frodo's friend in "Lord of the Ring",series), the Chef at the restaurant, the owner of the restaurant, the Drew's father and Henry's assistant at the zoo.
A movie that can make you laugh as much as it can bring a tear to your eyes, see it if you haven't seen it yet.
Very cute and worth the purchase price.......2007-05-29
I have not been disappointed in the duo Sandler/Barrymore so far, their movies have been rather good, they have the chemistry. This is one of those cute movies that gets you to laugh from time to time and even think about how your life can be different. Sometimes you wonder if these two characters would really get together in real life, but then realize it's just a movie that you can watch for the entertainment of it. It's in my collection and I think you will want it in yours as well after you watch it.
Equal Parts Romantic and Comedy.......2007-04-15
Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore give memorable performances in this very funny romantic comedy. Don't worry guys this isn't a total chick flick just kinda. This movie was shot in the very beautiful state of Hawaii. Of course the Sandman makes this movie very worth buying.
Adorable Movie........2007-04-09
I love this movie. It's just so cute and I love to see Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore paired together. They just have such great chemistry

Product Description
Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore star together for the first time since The Wedding Singer in one of the funniest romantic comedies in years. Henry (Sandler) lives an enviable life in a Hawaiian paradise, spending every night with a beautiful tourist in search of an island fling. It's a sweet life with no strings attached...until he meets Lucy (Barrymore). He and Lucy hit it off from the get-go, but the next day she acts like she doesn't know him. Has his karma come around to kick him in the butt or what? Actually, Lucy has short-term memory loss so every night all memory of her day is erased. But a man in love will go to any lengths to win over the girl of his dreams, and if that means having to find imaginative ways of doing it over again every day, then Henry's up for the challenge. Rob Schneider (Big Daddy) and Sean Astin (The Lord of the Rings trilogy) co-star in 50 First Dates, which will win you over every time you watch it!

Entertaining.......2007-02-28
I like this movie - I found it amusing and entertaining. It's a unique story. The story does depict real life and its meant for entertainment so its not necessarily focused on being realistic. I would watch this one again and don't have a problem paying regular price for it.
50 first Dates Blu-ray.......2007-02-08
I was going to purchase this movie on standard DVD until I bought my PS3. I've seen the movie previously on DVD but after watching it on Blu-ray I am glad I waited to purchase it. The picture quality is so much better than DVD and the sound is so clear. I have fallen in love with Blu-ray since I bought this movie and I plan to buy Blu-ray from now on.
A Decent Blu-Ray Release...........2006-12-14
Story Synopsis:
Dr. Henry Roth (Sandler) is living a dream life in paradise. Afraid of commitment, he lives his life happily enjoying a constant stream of one-night stands with just about any tourist who comes to town. But when he falls for local girl Lucy Whitmore (Barrymore), he learns that Lucy has short-term memory loss and doesn't remember him each time they meet, and he has to come up with new ways to woo her as he takes her on 50 First Dates.
Disc Picture:
The 2.40:1 Blu-ray Disc picture exhibits bright, well-rendered colors, deep blacks, and accurate skintones. Some outdoor night shots look very good indeed, with great detail in the blacks to help give the picture a three-dimensional feel. Some scenes, however, look slightly washed out with blacks that are more a charcoal gray. Close-ups can be very detailed, although the detail isn't as sharp as some of the best high-definition presentations. Source element artifacts do show up from time to time, and the images can be a bit noisy with heavy film grain as well. The picture quality is quite good for the most part, but sometimes a bit hit-or-miss.
Soundtrack:
The improved fidelity provided by the uncompressed PCM 5.1-channel encoded soundtrack is welcome, but the mix is still a bit uneventfull. Surround envelopment is limited and the front stage imaging is not very wide or deep.
Surprising depth of conciseness.......2006-06-24
The island is Hawaii, a temporary paradise for many women; the man on the island is Henry Roth (Adam Sandler) also a temporary paradise. Unwilling to commit to anyone or thing but his boat.
Then he meets Lucy Whitmore (Drew Barrymore). After an accident she has lost her ability to transfer short term memory to log term. So every day since the accident is erased and she starts over. So the relationship starts from an bet and ends up who knows where if any where.
At first it the film looks just like any old Adam Sandler film that only Sandlerights could like. Then it settles down to cute. Then it settles down to meaningful, finally you forget that you are watching a movie and then it is over. Drew excels in this movie and is very believable.
The film would have come off a lot better with out all the Sandleright left over characters that contributed zip to the story. The two that came to mind is the brother Doug Whitmore (Sean Astin). And the what-not Alexa (Lusia Strus.)
Another warning is that the version of DVD had a bunch of coming attractions after paying good money I do not need forced attractions at the beginning. Wait for a better release or just press the "Menu" button to escape them.
How to review a DVD before you've seen it :).......2006-06-23
Amazing, boggles my mind how you can review a blu-ray DVD version of a movie before you've even bought your player OR DVD! We don't need an Adam/ Drew naysayer, what we need is an objective evaluation of the blu-ray transfer. I for one can't wait to get my hands on this to review. I have no stars to award other than to balance the 1 star "gee I haven't seen the blu-ray but I'm rating" evaluator.

It's a sweet lifewith no strings attached...until he meets Lucy (Barrymore). He and Lucy hit it off from the get-go, but the next day she acts like she doesn't know him. Has his karma come around to kick him in thebutt or what? Actually, Lucy has short-term memory loss so every night all memory of her day is erased. But a man in love will go to any lengths to win over the girl of his dreams, and if that means having to find imaginative ways of doing it over again every day, then Henry's up for the challenge. Rob Schneider (Big Daddy) and Sean Astin (The Lord of the Rings trilogy) co-star in 50 First Dates, which will win you over every time you watch it!

Surprising depth of conciseness.......2006-05-28
The island is Hawaii, a temporary paradise for many women; the man on the island is Henry Roth (Adam Sandler) also a temporary paradise. Unwilling to commit to anyone or thing but his boat.
Then he meets Lucy Whitmore (Drew Barrymore). After an accident she has lost her ability to transfer short term memory to log term. So every day since the accident is erased and she starts over. So the relationship starts from an bet and ends up who knows where if any where.
At first it the film looks just like any old Adam Sandler film that only Sandlerights could like. Then it settles down to cute. Then it settles down to meaningful, finally you forget that you are watching a movie and then it is over. Drew excels in this movie and is very believable.
The film would have come off a lot better with out all the Sandleright left over characters that contributed zip to the story. The two that came to mind is the brother Doug Whitmore (Sean Astin). And the what-not Alexa (Lusia Strus.)
Another warning is that the version of DVD had a bunch of coming attractions after paying good money I do not need forced attractions at the beginning. Wait for a better release or just press the "Menu" button to escape them.

WOW...........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-04-15
what a beautiful love story. it could be listed among the best 10 greatest movie romances in the world! wonderful performance of the leading couple, beautiful characters development, wonderful directing, screenplay, everything is just....just fascinatingly beautiful. couldn't believe korean movies become so mature, profound and so romantically wonderful. i just wish all the real korean people could be as wonderful as people in this movie, not like what i've met, encountered and heard so far in america.
again, one of the most beautiful movies ever seen. a must watch or own movie if you still consider love forever and forever love existed.
Powerful! A must own movie!.......2006-11-17
Powerful! Everything about this move is just simply beautifully perfect... the story, scenery, actors... all beautiful! You'll find yourself laughing and cry with the characters... You know it a good movie when the emotions feel real!
A Movie to Remember.......2006-07-10
I just watched this beautiful, yet tragic movie and I was blown away. The story is rich and well written. Unlike a typical Korean drama, this movie shows what is love really about and how much you are willing to maintain to that love with someone special in your life. Girls be sure to have a tissue ready and guys be sure to rent or buy this movie to show how much you love that special somebody. You won't regret it!
A must see movie.......2006-06-10
This was a beautiful love story that I highly recommend. First you witness the meeting of the two main characters, then see how their love grows. Unfortunately, his love for her must endure her tragic condition. The story is beautifully done, realistically portraying life unlike typical K-dramas...no love triangles and no super rich families.
It is beautiful, tragic and romantic. But be sure to have tissues because it WILL make you cry.

With generous amounts of good luck and good timing, 50 First Dates set an all-time box-office record for the opening weekend of a romantic comedy; whether it deserved such a bonanza is another issue altogether. It's a sweet-natured vehicle for sweet-natured stars Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, and their track record with The Wedding Singer no doubt factors in its lowbrow appeal. But while the well-matched lovebirds wrestle with a gimmicky plot (she has no short-term memory, so he has to treat every encounter as their first), director Peter Segal (who directed Sandler in Anger Management) ignores the intriguing potential of their predicament (think Memento meets Groundhog Day) and peppers the proceedings with the kind of juvenile humor that Sandler fans have come to expect. The movie sneaks in a few heartfelt moments amidst its inviting Hawaiian locations, and that trained walrus is charmingly impressive, but you can't quite shake the feeling that too many good opportunities were squandered in favor of easy laughs. Like Barrymore's character, you might find yourself forgetting this movie shortly after you've seen it. --Jeff Shannon
Customer Reviews:
A comedy that delivers the funny with some unexpected warmth and charm..........2007-06-25
In the long line of men who act like children Adam Sandler is probably the most successful. Here, with `50 First Dates' he gives us a good reason as to why. Coupled with the talented Drew Barrymore he wonderfully crafts a funny yet sincere romantic comedy that whops a wallop of a tear jerking ending. The chemistry between the two stars is impeccable and believable despite the beauty factor of Barrymore and the goofy factor of Sandler. They work wonderfully together and Barrymore has proven to get the best out of Sandler for the second time. Arguably their first pairing in `The Wedding Singer' is a better movie, but that's arguable since this little gem is just as funny and just as sweet.
The story is one that could have gone either way in the genre department. Barrymore's character Lucy is a beautiful Hawaiian native who attracts the attention of playboy Henry Roth, a native who entertains tourist women with good times and one night stands and loves the bachelorhood he's built for himself. Lucy is different though, she's otherworldly to Roth in a way, so much different than the girls he's used to being with. Lucy's main difference though is not anything Henry would have expected. Lucy has no short term memory. In fact she lives everyday as if it were the same day, going to sleep and waking up on her fathers birthday, the day she suffered a horrendous accident that caused her to lose her ability to remember anything after that point. This same plotline could have made a brilliant drama, but I'm glad they went funny with this one.
After Roth finds out Lucy's problem he makes a special effort each day to make her fall in love with him again, not for the sheer satisfaction of the chase but because there's something about Lucy that he can't let go of. He loves this girl. At first her father and brother are indifferent to the idea, opposed even, but when they see the positive effect that Henry is having on Lucy they decide that maybe this isn't such a bad idea.
Adam Sandler, while still giving the audience the slapstick and comedy they are used to, delivers a more mature performance than most of his other comedic films. His relationship with Barrymore's character is much more sympathetic then in previous films and is one the audience can get behind and cheer for. Barrymore though upstages Sandler every step of the way delivering an on point comedic performance that will make any fan proud. She's beautiful, sweet, sincere and hilarious. The supporting actors all do a fine job, Rob Schneider delivering most of the big laughs as Ula the pot smoking father of a small tribe of children. Blake Clark and Sean Astin are good as Lucy's father and brother and Pomaika'i Brown is hilarious as `tattoo face', the chief at the local restaurant where Lucy and Henry meet.
There are some one-liners in this film that almost take away from the effortless hilarity of the balance of the film. Dan Aykroyd has resorted to painful roles and this is one of them, a role littered with dialog that's hard to listen to without cringing, and that Hawaiian native who gives the audience language lessons is more than annoying. Aside from this minor downfall the audience will have a great time watching Henry's pathetic attempts at swooning Lucy, Ula's hilarious attempts at helping him, not to mention his pathetic advice, but I'm sure nothing will give the audience more pleasure than trying to decide just what gender Henry's horny associate really is!
Falling in love for the first time, everyday, for the rest of your life and maybe even crying... .......2007-06-09
After "The Wedding Singer" the Sandler-Barrymore duo do it again with their wonderful on-screen chemistry and an adorable story. The movie also makes you think philosophically. Actually many people in life whose actions are still very mechanical and robot like, live a life as Drew does in this movie. However unlike Drew there are none to tell these people what's wrong with their lives. However it is also tragic to think that one day she has to wake up somewhere in her 60's and realise that her father died and then relive that everyday. The same feeling would multiply if more of her loved ones were to die before her. The other thing to imagine is that someone ought to ensure her daily treatment continued till she died.
Then there are those unforgettable numbers from the 80's, particularly "Lovesong" and "Friday I'am in love" by the amazing, The Cure, "Drive" by The Cars, "Hold me now" from the Thomson Twins, The Police's "Every breath You take" and Spandau Ballet's "True" which was also featured in "The Wedding Singer". Most of these numbers this time are played as cover songs by newer artistes making the soundtrack to this movie another big seller. "Could you be loved" the original by Bob Marley is retained though. And like "The Wedding Singer" there's that adorable song from Adam Sandler as well.
Hawaii is pictured so beautifully that the movie literally promotes tourism for this lovely island.
Several other characters also deserve praise. Henry's Hawaiian Friend, Lucy's brother (played by the guy who plays Frodo's friend in "Lord of the Ring",series), the Chef at the restaurant, the owner of the restaurant, the Drew's father and Henry's assistant at the zoo.
A movie that can make you laugh as much as it can bring a tear to your eyes, see it if you haven't seen it yet.
Very cute and worth the purchase price.......2007-05-29
I have not been disappointed in the duo Sandler/Barrymore so far, their movies have been rather good, they have the chemistry. This is one of those cute movies that gets you to laugh from time to time and even think about how your life can be different. Sometimes you wonder if these two characters would really get together in real life, but then realize it's just a movie that you can watch for the entertainment of it. It's in my collection and I think you will want it in yours as well after you watch it.
Equal Parts Romantic and Comedy.......2007-04-15
Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore give memorable performances in this very funny romantic comedy. Don't worry guys this isn't a total chick flick just kinda. This movie was shot in the very beautiful state of Hawaii. Of course the Sandman makes this movie very worth buying.
Adorable Movie........2007-04-09
