Unfortunately, their chemistry and screen presence is about the only thing that keeps the movie going. It's true that neither of the two are particularly good actors (Sandler especially), but the way the two interact is irresistible and adorable at times. The chemistry between Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore is what carries the story. Most of the film's benefits come from the "rom" part of its genre. But it also wasn't as inherently awful as I assumed it would be. True, it definitely wasn't a great movie. But after sitting through 50 First Dates with her, I don't think it'll be as hard as I thought to watch more in the future. Needless to say, I wasn't particularly thrilled when my girlfriend told me she loved rom-coms. I've always hated romantic movies, and I've never really enjoyed comedies (excluding Airplane, which remains one of the funniest movies I've ever seen).
