I LOVE this movie!
This movie is all about great interaction between Ed Burns, Mike McGlone, and John Mahoney. The dialogue between them is perfect. Cameron Diaz is absolutely beautiful, but I wish there would have been more scenes between her and Ed Burns. I liked this film far more than The Brothers McMullen, and I'm expecting great things from Mr. Burns in the future.
More than your average Romantic Comedy
I'm not sure why I've rented this film 3 times in the last couple of years. The characters are well developed, Tom Petty's sound track is very good and there are the gorgeous gals of course (Diaz, Anniston, Bahns), but there's more to it. This is an excellent, but perhaps not classic, drama posing as a romantic comedy. It's about morality and responsibility in a time when there is no morality and responsibility.. about love and family in a time when the definition of these words has become blurred. It cuts pretty close to home at times.. and there are those beautiful women.
Great movie, great writing
I really enjoyed this movie. Edward Burns was great in it and it made me want to find out more about him. This movie is so funny, I laughed out loud many times, The dialog is great and very true to life. I really cared about the characters and what would happen to them. Cameron Diaz is also in this movie and she is really good. Go see it- it's a feel-good movie with depth.
American wasteland
Good job burying Aniston in the script, because she won't amount to much, and OD'ing us on whatever else is left. Not one genuinely funny moment. Too malicious for romance. Too lost for drama. I'll leave it as 90's puffery.
The chemistry between Mickey and Hope, the couple we're suppose to cheer for, was non-existent. The brotherly relationship between Mickey and Francis was undercut, well... by the acting. Besides Aniston, the very little of her, this film provides nothing that works. What was this film trying to portray, what was the message, what was the point? Answer: its Sex In The City meets Friends minus the talent, the writing and the humor.

Watch this "One" more than once
Edward Burns second film, "She's the One", is one to be watched again and again and again. The majority of the film critics felt that Burns did not make a new movie with "She's the One" but merely an extension of "The Brothers McMullen", on the contrary. "She's the One" is a witty, interesting comedy about the problems that men face with the women in their lives. The more you watch this movie the more you will appreciate it. Edward Burns really stands out as an extraordinary actor.
