The soundtrack is incredible, especially the remake of "let my love open the door" (sorry don't know the title)

Nobody does deadpan dis-interest quite like Cusack. Love the soundtrack as well.

Not the slam dunk it could've been or what I was expecting, but overall, very charming Cusack comedy. I'd definitely marry Minnie Driver in this movie btw. Just a fun movie.

3.5/5

Quirky and funny. Cusack (both of them) and Aykroyd are especially great, and even Minnie Driver shows some comedic chops. Top-notch, if rather overbearing, soundtrack too.
