Which is basically my opinion of this film, give it a chance.
If it's been a tough day, or you're not feeling too great about yourself, then I advise you put this film on and become wrapped up in it*.

Assured to raise at least a smile, and hopefully recover that tingly feeling in your toes.

Classic love triangle and a dog on roller skates!
Review date: 2002-05-12 Rating: 10 out of 10

If Ben Chaplin alone (the original Matthew from Game On) isn't worth watching this film for, then there are a host of other reasons. Janeane Garofalo is superb in the role of Abby, a nutty radio animal psychologist, who talks Brian (Chaplin) through the best way to win the heart of a dog on roller skates he is trying to photograph! It's love at first voice for Brian and Abby and love at first sight for Brian and Noelle (Uma Thurman), Abby's beautiful neighbour, but will Abby come clean and tell Brian who she really is?
This film is a real classic which has been sadly overlooked. Garofalo and Chaplin have a real natural chemistry. I could watch this over and over again - in fact, I have!

I love it!

A great romance with an animal twist to it. The actors/actresses have been well chosen and there's a definite chemistry between them. Go on, watch it!

Pure escapism

I love this film. Very funny, wonderfully acted, beautifully shot, knowingly written and light as a feather, this is definitely a movie to watch if you've had a hard day and need to unwind.

Uma Thurman shows a talent for comedy as an implausibly beautiful airhead, Ben Chaplin is charming as an English photographer living and working in LA, and Janeane Garofalo is funny, intelligent and cuddly-cute as a radio vet.

Infinitely better than the tripe that is "Sleepless in Seattle" or "any of those others" with Meg Ryan.
