50 First Dates (DVD) ... released 15 June, 2004 at Columbia TriStar / Features of the DVD: AC-3, Anamorphic, Closed-captioned, Colour, Dolby, Dubbed, DVD-Video, Special Edition, Subtitled, Widescreen, NTSC / 50 First Dates is a sweet-natured vehicle for sweet-natured stars Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, and their track record with The Wedding Singer no doubt factors in its lowbrow appeal. But while the well-matched lovebirds wrestle with a gimmicky plot (she has no short-term memory, so he has to treat every encounter as their first), director Peter Segal (who directed Sandler in Anger Management) ignores the intriguing potential of their predicament (think Memento meets Groundhog Day) and peppers the proceedings with the kind of juvenile humour that Sandler fans have come to expect. The movie sneaks in a few heartfelt moments amidst its inviting Hawaiian locations, and that trained walrus is charmingly impressive, but you can't quite shake the feeling that too many good opportunities were squandered in favour of easy laughs. Like Barrymore's character, you might find yourself forgetting this movie shortly after you've seen it. --Jeff Shannon

 ... barrymore and she has amnesia which means she does not remember him the next day. the guy is adam sandler and he tries to keep seeing her all of the time so that he can get her to remember him so they can date properly but every time she forgets and he has to remind her by taking her on another date. the film is a comedy but i think it is only a comedy for women reallly as its just not that funny. i think i laughed about three times during the whole film which goes on for about one and a half hours. the film is ...more

Movie marathon at a girls...well we need to watch some Rom-coms (Along Came Polly being another)...sadly it seems comedy or chick flicks is all she has...and I forgot to bring mine when I legged it up north whilst suffering a murderous hangover (I wish I'd thought that over, but alas, my lifes more of a mess). So with over 100 movies to pick from, I think were about 1/2 way through now and with all the Adam Sandler movies gone (see also recent review of Mr Deeds) I can only see it goig down hill and ending up with me smashing Black Beauty and chasing here around with a snapped disk trying to kill her. But anyway back onto the movie a hand good old Adam ...

50 First Dates is another classic with the top pairing of Drew Barrymore & Adam Sandler. If you liked the Wedding Singer then this is the film for you! Rob Schneider adds to the comedy and there are loads of hilarious scenes which should have you laughing from start to finish. Although I would initially say that this is a chick flick do not be put off if your a bloke and just want something easy going to ...

This is an enjoyable film quite simply. MAny would say its a chick flick, either way its a happy funny, with moments of frustration and definately one of the better films of its genre out there. Its not one of those sidesplitting movies, but at the same time its not one of those films that are so mushy and gooey and romantic, its got good balance and its definateyl worth watching and if your a fan of sandler even ...
