Happy Accidents

Ruby Weaver has man trouble: she tries to fix them, so she's stuck herself with a string of losers. Her current lover, Sam Deed, seems different: he's sweet, tender, just in from Dubuque. But, as Ruby tells her therapist about Sam, in flashbacks we see someone not quite of this world. In fact, Sam informs Ruby that he's from the future, 2470 to be exact, traveling back in time to avoid prosecution for his sister's death, and to find Ruby, whose photo he saw back home. Ruby's sure he's delusional, but most of the time she wants to keep him - and maybe fix him. Although he seems sane, maybe Sam hasn't told her the real story: what's he up to, and who is Chrystie Delancey?

    Don't bother

    I survived about 10 minutes. I think I like Vincent D'Onofrio as Bobby Goren (law and order)but not a whole lot else. I felt like I should have enjoyed this but just couldn't watch any more.

    Not such a happy accident

    Although Tomei makes for a personable if a little screechy lead in a romantic comedy, she has her work cut out for her with this lame example. The difference here is that her boyfriend is a time traveller from the future. Whereas this could be a situation that leads to all sorts of comic complications, it oddly doesn't here, and the film stays resolutely low-key and uninvolving.
