John Ritter & Katey Sagal Were Terrific together!

[whpratt1 · 10/10 · 4 April 2004]

Have enjoyed seeing this film many times in the past, however, I have a deeper appreciation for the great acting skills of John Ritter. It is sad to see him in this picture along with Katey Sagal, who was the last actress to work with him in "8 Simple Rules",TV Series,'02. John Ritter( Tom Maguire), and Katey Sagal (Irene Duncan), had me laughing through out the entire picture. I enjoyed seeing Irene Duncan pushing Tom around in a hand DOLLY to protect his back problems. The scenes taken in the City of Chicago were outstanding. This film will always keep John Ritter's image a live for all future generations to see what a great talent he had to offer the world!

Nice, simple love story

[petslover · 20 June 2001]

This movie Is the basic love story that most people have seen. Guy and girl work together,someone gets fired, they have to get married for some reason or other, and they only plan to keep it up for a few weeks. Eventually they realize that they love each other and they stay married. I don't want to give away the whole story so just watch it if you ever get the chance. I like the love stories that end good and happy.

Excellently funny movie

[Awesome8SimpleRules · 10/10 · 1 April 2005]

Katey Sagal and John Ritter are excellent in this movie,both bounce of each other bringing the excellent script to life.They both are very funny and the way they interact and play off each others comedic experience is a joy to watch. It was great to see them back acting together in 8 Simple Rules.Its just a shame it was for such a short time as they are a really good pair.They have the same chemistry in this movie as they did in 8 Simple Rules. This movie is really good,it has suspense in there as well as comedy and romance,showing that love can come from anything,anywhere,anyone. I do wish that they had realised their feelings for each other a bit earlier on so we could see what happened for a bit of their lives,but its not so bad cos its meant to stimulate our own minds with what happens after they are together. Everyone should watch this movie if its only to see John and Katey in something before 8 Simple Rules or just to see John in a romantic comedy role or if your a fan of either John or Katey or both as i am.
