    • Trivia
      Final film performance of actor Gene Hackman; he would announce his retirement from acting a few years later.
    • Goofs
      "Hail to the Chief," played at the reception for Monroe Cole, should never be played for anyone except the current president and is inappropriate in that situation. Correct protocol dictates that "The Star-Spangled Banner" should be played as the proper salutation for former presidents.
    • Quotes

      Grace Sutherland: [after kissing Monroe] That was no handshake, you son of a bitch.

    Aw cmon now.
    This movie is not as bad as it is cracked out to be. I actually went into the movie with a negative bias by reading all the comments and hearing all the trashing reviews. This movie was not too bad at all. I found it very watchable.

    Okay ask yourself whether you like the show Everybody Loves Raymond. Because that it is how most of the humor is in the movie, minus the laugh track. The show is a big hit sensation, and the two characters Ray Romano play, in personality and such, are very similiar.

    The story is pretty outrageous, but in a good way. The movie had the nice friendly small town feel to it. Kind of like Groundhog Day did, minus the having the same day happen over and over again thing, and that entire storyline.

    It is a pretty friendly movie, and pretty funny as well. Had my laughing on a few occasions. Worth the watch. Don't be intimidated by the reviews. It is a good movie.
