“50 First Dates” is a romantic comedy about a man in love with a woman who has short term memory loss. She cannot remember anything from the day before, so every morning he must woo her all over again. This far-fetched premise actually works due to excellent direction by Peter Segal (“My Fellow Americans” 1996) and a well written screenplay by George Wing.
The performances of and chemistry between Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore also make a huge difference. They are two of the top comedic talents of our time. Co-stars include Rob Schneider, Sean Astin, Dan Aykroyd, Amy Hill, Missi Pyle, Maya Rudolph, Kevin James, Lynn Collins, Blake Clark, Lusia Strus, and Allen Covert. The watchable “50 First Dates” was a hit at the general box office for Columbia Pictures, Happy Madison Productions, Anonymous Content, Flower Films, and Sony Pictures Releasing.
