I really hated this film. I quite liked the beginning when Meg Ryan descended from bubbly to downright alcoholic but then the rest of the film was just completely lost on me. First and foremost, I find it a failure in the script that the story focused entirely on the relationship between the two grown ups and neglected the children. Personally, I think this would have been the more interesting story. But secondly, I just didn't get what Garcia's character was supposed to have done wrong. I honestly didn't although I was prepared to. So he may have been a macho but I saw him as being portrayed as supportive and a victim of her alcoholism just as the rest of the family. Why he should be partly responsible for it is beyond me as it was never properly explained.

An airline pilot and his wife are forced to face the consequences of her alcoholism when her addictions threaten her life and their daughter's safety. While the woman enters detox, her husband must face the truth of his attitude and tolerance......... Which to be fair is really good considering his situation. And this is why the film really rubbed me up the wrong way. Whom is the victim in this relationship? Is it Ryan? She has a disease, so she is forgiven when she strikes her daughter and tries to commit the most selfish act any human can do. Is it Garcia? A hard working put upon husband who is always on tenterhooks as to whether he can go and do an honest days work, without worrying about the sobriety of his Wife. Sure, he loses his temper a little halfway through the film, so when Saint Meg comes out of rehab all clean and sober, to thank Garcia, she throws him out of the house with a doe eyed look. It's a terrible film with an awful message. It's basically saying if you are middle class with a good income and plenty of hiding spaces,then it's okay to be a drunk, because you have respect from your peers and all your friends. Ryan plays an awful drunk, slightly slurring and shouting at times, and then when she is better, she goes from slightly irritating drunk, to downright abhorrent angel. There's no realism to the film, and to add the ice to the cocktail, we finish with an award ceremony where Ryan gives a speech about everything bad she has done, and Garcia is there and they all live happily ever after. If you want to see a film about hoe alcohol can affect home life, see Nil by Mouth. If you want to stay in your silly bubble see this, it's so unrealistic, it almost veers into the world of fantasy. Honestly, Arthur was more realistic than this. Cheers.

I saw this movie when it came out in theaters in 94' and I thought it was OK back then. A&E Classics was showing it last night and I started watching it from the start. I thought it would be fun to see it again since it's been over a decade. Well, it's interesting what 10 year will do to make you see things in a different light. First of all, I don't like Meg Ryan. The faces she makes annoy me. Her facial expressions get on my nerves and that constant "I know it all and you are an idiot" attitude is just too much for me. Andy Garcia I like, he's great. But it's just things they do in the movie that made me ask myself "who does that???".... Like the scene where they come home from their anniversary date and they're about to be intimate, when the Porsche's car alarm starts going off and she comes out with eggs and milk and starts vandalizing the car. OK people, who does that??? Then Andy Garcia just stands there like a moron and let's her JUMP ON THE CAR and smear the egg and food all over the car. WHERE ARE THE OWNERS OF THE PORSCHE?????? I would of come out with a bat and taken it to hear head a couple of times!!!! That's when I said, enough of this crap. What a stupid movie. Don't watch it unless you buy all the crap Hollywood feeds you..... ZERO stars

"sheer drivel!" is the best way to describe this movie, I went to watch this movie in the cinema, seriously, this movie was really bad...I actually walked out of the cinema, really, I did..I just couldn't bare it anymore, the movie was so boring, it was very disappointing, I suppose I should not have gone in with such high expectations after hearing all the positive raves it got from the media hype I was expecting something heartfelt and something that could move me emotionally, instead i got a story that made no sense and had too many holes in it, and as for the acting, well, i felt like throwing up! the actors should ask for a refund from their acting school and i must say that the cinematography really left a lot to be desired. like i said "sheer drivel!"

A husband steadfastly loves his self-centered and obnoxious wife and suffers for it. That's what I saw played out in this movie in excruciating detail. What the scriptwriters wanted us to see was a heroic woman who singlehandedly conquers her problems while putting Mr. Nice Guy Husband in his proper place (kicked out of the house, separated from his children, and generally punished for "not listening deeply" enough). The thing I hate about this movie is the script and the skewed philosophy behind it. A faithful husband does the best he can to care for an abusive, alcoholic wife, love her, and hold his family together. He doesn't need a psychiatrist for the imagined sin of "co-dependency." He needs respect for taking responsibility for his family. That's the "for better or worse" part of marriage and the role of a parent. The wife who is so immersed in her own feelings that she is willing to let her daughters suffer the loss of their Daddy just to try to make herself feel better--that woman doesn't need understanding. She needs to get a handle on reality and see how many lives she is damaging. This was not about the husband loving his wife too much. It was about the wife loving her husband and children too little. While we generally look at the world in shades of grey, I find it impossible to see the scriptwriters' version of marriage in anything but black and white clarity. Even the contrived ending was less than believable, and not in the least satisfying. Andy Garcia and the older daughter gave beautiful performances. In fact, they were the reason I stayed with the movie to the end. Meg Ryan's cute persona did not work well here, but the smallness and pettishness of the wife came across. Meg was sufficiently mean to her children and coldly cruel to her husband to evoke distaste in the viewer. I am amazed that Meg Ryan is still so proud of this movie.

I saw this gem in high school. What a truly awful movie. This is one of the few movies that I have walked out of. Let me give away the plot: Talking, Drinking, Crying, Talking, Crying. The end. As the other poster said, Meg Ryan's character is not likable. I didn't feel sorry for her, I just wanted to repeatedly smack her and tell her to quit the darn crying and drinking, but we still don't have the technology to reach through the screen and smack actors yet. This one was worse than City of Angels and thats saying a lot, as City of Angels was mostly Crying and Staring, as opposed to this one's Crying, Drinking, and Talking.

Sorry to go against the grain here, but I really didn't care for this movie. My main problem is with Meg Ryan's character. She just isn't a very likeable person. She drinks, slaps her kids, drives drunk with her kids in the car, completely forgets about her kids while she's out on drinking binges...and we're supposed to feel empathy with this character? And then, when the couple breaks up, guess who gets custody of the kids? Mom the alcoholic! How's that for a little bit of reverse sexism for you? Sorry, but this movie did very little for me.
