Viewing Notes

A Rom-Com bases on a premise of finding true love via a Ouiji Board? Starring Marisa Tomei and Robert Downey, Jr! This is a fun little Rom-Com that at least tries to be a little different.

The story is stupid and somewhat generic, but the performances by the 2 leads sell it. The supporting cast is a lot of fun, too Bonnie Hunt is great, but my favorite role goes to the crazy long haired Billy Zane performance.

Planted firmly in 1994, ONLY YOU is severely dated (airports, telephone cords and bad hair), but is a harmless little movie and a fun watch.
