Sam, portrayed by Matthew Broderick, embodies a rational demeanor in a chaotic urban setting, maintaining a thoughtful and refined sensibility amidst the backdrop of Leroy Neiman-inspired visuals and beer commercial aesthetics. His preference for meticulously crafting meals over a hot stove contrasts sharply with the fast-food mentality of `supersize it.' By day, he works as a retail staff member in a high-end gourmet restaurant, a role that resonates with those familiar with the New York City chain—its depiction closely mirrors the real-world experience. The humor arises from his struggles with customers demanding impossibly precise service for their imported French delicacies, as his outward politeness conceals exasperation at their relentless expectations. Broderick's performance effectively anchors the film's light-hearted tone, offering a refreshing counterpoint to the surrounding absurdity.
Sciorra's character, Ellen, a lovelorn dental hygienist, is portrayed with sufficient depth, and her unwitting entanglements with Sam create moments of promising chemistry. The dynamic between them subtly cultivates a sense of romantic possibility, enticing viewers to envision their potential union. However, the movie's primary romantic rival—a stockbroker played by Kevin Anderson—serves more as a comedic caricature than a credible foil. This character, embodying the archetype of a beer-swilling frat-boy who mistakes post-sex intimacy for flipping on a sports broadcast, occasionally elicits laughter. Yet, the narrative might have gained strength by crafting a more nuanced character or assigning a more charismatic performance, rather than merely highlighting his unsuitability through stark contrasts with Broderick's sensitive portrayal. Imagine John Candy's role in Splash, where his flamboyant lifestyle—complete with cigarettes and beer cans—adds charm despite its divergence from the hero's path. In contrast, this stockbroker remains an unlikable figure, lacking the redeeming qualities that would make him compelling.
While the film maintains a pleasant, light-hearted ambiance for its initial act, the story's credibility falters in its portrayal of sexual relationships and infidelity. (SPOILER AHEAD—skip to next paragraph.) After Ellen's clandestine evening, she confronts her interrogating husband, whose initial reaction is appropriately stunned. However, the narrative's next turn is problematic: rather than erupting in emotional turmoil, the husband responds with an unusually composed analysis of his own housing decisions. This reaction defies realistic expectations, as no spouse would likely process an unexpected betrayal with such detachment. The husband's emotional state would more plausibly manifest as either frenzied outbursts or incapacitating sorrow—yet this approach risks making the protagonist appear sympathetically flawed, undermining the film's romantic comedy framework. The story attempts to circumvent this by fabricating a contrived resolution, leaving audiences feeling as though they're being manipulated.
Disappointment escalates toward the film's conclusion, where the narrative inexplicably resolves misunderstandings with an abruptly satisfying denouement. While the desire for a romantic resolution is understandable, the final act falls short with another implausible character reaction and a rushed, formulaic ending that feels overly simplistic and unearned. The film's concluding moments evoke a sense of betrayal, as if the movie itself had been unfaithful to the audience's expectations.
