| I love this flick. I hate most romances. I hate overacting. I hate an overwrought soundtrack. I hate many things that this film is. And yet, taken as a whole it is wonderful. I love the overacting when it's Cher and Nicolas Cage having angry makeup sex the first day they meet. I love it when it's Olympia Dukakis complaining about her husband having a mistress. I love the smarmy soundtrack (most of the time) with the gratuitous opera clips. Some people really are that over the top and since almost every character in the film is too much, they come out just right. |

| This is a wonderful, funny, and lighthearted love story set in Little Italy. The film truly has a magical quality, with vibrant writing, and superb acting. Academy Award level performances by Cher and Olympia Dukakis. |
