A Great and Entertaining 90 Minutes, 13 January 2008
8/10
Author: PeterWilliamson from Australia

This movie is a lot more fun and entertaining than I had expected when I sat down to watch it. It gives you a little bit of three great genres: comedy, romance and a hint of drama. John Travolta plays James Ubriacco perfectly, helping you to lose the awareness that your watching a movie. Kirstie Alley is Molly, the single mother trying to cope with her one and only child; which brings us to the famous and lovable Mikey, with the very necessary voice of Bruce Willis, Mikey makes this movie at least six stars.

The movie's fun dialogue captured me on more than one occasion, but I think that one particular line could earn this movie an eight out of ten. When James' grandpa thinks that Molly is married to James, he's talking to her while lying on a hospital bed, he says "of all my daughter in-laws, your my favourite. Your smart and your a good person. That's why Jimmy loves you so much." As a recommendation to others, if you haven't seen this movie, watch it from what I've written above.
