Amazon.co.uk Review
This gentle comedy almost seems like something out of Hollywood's Golden Age, a movie that might have been made by a talented contract director, perhaps featuring Don Ameche and Claudette Colbert. But in fact One Fine Day stars George Clooney as an investigative columnist for a New York newspaper and Michelle Pfeiffer as an architect. Both single parents, the two meet and bicker and develop a relationship over the course of a day while their young children play together. Michael Hoffman (Restoration) directs with a good sense of what's funny about harried caretakers and kids who do whatever they want to do. The story stretches out of shape a bit when Clooney's character has to rally to prove some point of corruption at City Hall; nobody involved seems quite up to making that subplot believable, but all that really matters about this very nice movie is the winning love story. --Tom Keogh

Be patient, it comes good in the end...Review date: 2007-11-30 Rating: 8 out of 10Well, I must admit that it took me a while to get into this. Both actors are of course incredibly talented, but, initially I found this to be so sickly American (apologies to our USA colleagues) with the children being a handful, that I almost switched off. The banter/sarcasm between the two parents was almost irritating at one point,however I kept going and I am very glad that I did. As the story lines unfolded, you could see that this was a match made in heaven!
Mr Cloony and Ms. Pfeifer are a winning combo in this 'they started out as enemies' film but it is a chick flick, so guys, beware.One Fine FilmReview date: 2007-05-23 Rating: 10 out of 10One Fine Day is one of the best romantic comedies made ever. the film stars George Clooney as a divorced journalist who never likes to take any responsibilities....Michelle Pfeiffer plays Melanie Parker, a divorced mother. The film is all about one day in the lives of these two individuals; how they meet, and how they come to know each other. It is beautifully edited and the screenplay is very tight. the USP of the film is definitely Michelle Pfeiffer. She delivers a top performance as a single mother who tries very hard to keep things normal. George Clooney is also quite funny as the cocky journalist who is not used to taking up any responsibilities quite unlike Melanie parker(Michelle Pfeiffer). The film takes off with the children missing their field trip in school (both Michelle's son and Clooney's daughter study together in the same school). Both Pfeiffer and Clooney have a busy day and they have no one but each other to look after the kids. so they decide to take turns and look after the kids.. there are some scenes which can be rated as classics ..especially the police station scene right after Pfeiffer loses Clooney's child. the film makes you laugh throughout and on the whole makes you feel good. it's a sweet film with good performances from all the cast members. go watch it...you wont regret it.One of the best films ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Review date: 2005-12-21 Rating: 10 out of 10This is one of the all time greatest films and i hope they put it on UMD for sony psp. its extremly funny and a great family film.Say That I'm Your Knight In Shining Armour!!!!!!!Review date: 2003-08-21 Rating: 10 out of 10Oh man. How can I forget this film? It's brilliant. I thought that the kids were really good and every single diaster, including the Drop In Centre Drugs scenario was so well handled. Ending was strange, I thought they'd show them getting married or something, but it was sweet seeing George and Michelle napping with the two kids around.
And how much do I want to go to New York now? But not in the rain.
