    made me want to fall in love and get married and spend every day with someone, and have all the ups and downs of life and relationships with them, to fight and disagree and say things we don't mean, but reconcile and express our love and stare into their eyes like it's the…

    it's funny how alternate nic cage did like eventful things on all their anniversaries like the most eventful thing my dad ever did for my mum on their anniversary was have a brain aneurysm in another state which led to my mum finding about his 9 month long affair

    Téa Leoni’s parents in this are named Ed and Lorraine, which means this movie is part of The Conjuring Universe

    I hate that they felt the need to re-create the "please don't get on that plane" scene at the airport, with their roles reversed. Not going through what he had just went through, she would've thought he was a creepy, raving lunatic, and she would have boarded that plane as…

    Such a beautiful and human movie that captures the wants of a man loving what he never knew he needed. You fall in love as he does and wants as he wants

    Great movie to watch before Christmas, talks about family values and, for some reason, its nostalgic, feels like you’re home ❤️

    This is a totally underrated holiday film that not enough people talk about! I had forgotten how much I enjoyed this film! So if you’re looking to break away from your traditional rotation of holiday films and you haven’t seen this, I would definitely recommend you do!

    The Family Man

    Decent Christmas movie. Nothing crazy to it, just a simple movie to watch on a cold day (with the fireplace on of course). As for my rating, I’d give it a 6.8/10, simply because I find it super difficult for Christmas movies to be rated highly.

    This is my first time watching this movie, but it made me super nostalgic. I went through some old picture when I finished this movie, and it was both heartbreaking and amazing. I highly recommend this movie.

A holiday fable that's not destined for immortality but goes down more easily than most of the pap Hollywood tries to feed us every Christmas.
