A lot of fun with some relationship commentaries and charming acting. Don't know why everybody votes this so low, it's actually pretty good.

Not good at all. Plus, Julia Robert’s character is a selfish, annoying, unlikable, hypocritical bitch who I just want to slap for beingawful

Odd film - Great actors. Side characters and plot becomes more interesting than the main plot at one point hehe.

I remember enjoying this. Pitt, Gandolfini, and prominent use of an El Camino. Julia Roberts was there.
Lex

Brad and Julia have zero romantic chemistry but that somewhat works in their favor. Gandolfini is the real draw here. Give it a shot.

Comedy adventure with a cool cast that has great chemistry. Runs a little longer than it should, but it’s an enjoyable film
