MCT:August 17, 2008Opening with several boring establishing shots, under the same soundtrack they seem to wheel out for every chick flick, followed by a pointless narration, I couldn't say While You Were Sleeping gives out the best impression.
Sandra Bullock plays the same role she has played in every film, the frumpy lonely loser, and she's as likeable or as annoying as you find her. Here she is in love with a man she has never spoken to, and saves his life when he falls on the railway tracks. He's in a coma and due to some 'hilarious' circumstances, his family become convinced she is his fiancée. What's never addressed is the seriousness of a man being in a coma, instead it is played for laughs, much the same as the rather creepy premise of a complete stranger insinuating her way into a family (from a different perspective, this could have been a horror film).
It's funny and extremely soppy, and it has no depth. The moral is being alone is bad, which is actually a bit depressing. Peter Gallagher and Bill Pullman are both very funny as the comatose man and his brother. I laughed when it was funny, but I nearly gagged on the amount of syrup drizzled all over it, and the ending is too quick and forced, spoiling the simmering romance central to the plot. -

MCT:July 25, 2008One of Sandra Bullock's best roles..
Heartwarming, funny and one of the few romantic comedies that actually manages to not be cliched ! -

This was such a great romance! Sandra Bullock is just a fantastic actress, she and Bill Pullman really did a good job for this movie.

MCT:June 28, 2008Lucy and Jack are perfect for each other but she doesn't know it cuz she's totally in love with his brother Peter (who is in a coma). She figures it out eventually, and falls in love with his funny, quirkey family, too. Funny and heartwarming!

MCT:June 23, 2008My favorite part is this scene with a little boy delivering papers, then slipping on the ice, and totally crashing his bike! It has absolutely nothing to do with the movie, but it is hilarious just the same!

The movie really shows what one lie can lead to another and that it can make a huge mess!
But the movie is really funny! -
MCT:June 16, 2008
The chick flick to end all chick flicks! The chemistry between the two stars (Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman), an excellent musical score and a top-of-the-line supporting cast put this film way above the others.

The only movie I can actually stand Sandra Bullock in. It's so cute and so adorable that I just can't help but adore it, though!

This is one of the few girlie movies that I like. I can't help but laugh everytime I see this movie. Sandra Bullock saves a guy that she don't know, but has been madly in love with just to be thought of by the family as his fiance. Then she happens to fall in love with the guy that has "amnesia" brother. This movie is funny...funny...funny.

Lucy trabaja como taquillera del metro de Chicago. Lleva una vida sencilla, y entre sus pequeñas alegrías está la visión diaria de un guapo viajero con el que nunca ha hablado, pero del que se ha enamorado. Un día, Lucy tiene la oportunidad de socorrerle cuando tiene un percance.

Its a cute little movie where Sandra Bullock pretends her way into a relationship with her fake fiancee's brother. It sounds stupid and OK it kind of is but it also works, at least for me.

Bill Pullman couldn't be cuter. Sandra is great as always. Nice romantic comedy that I think even some of the guys might find entertaining.
