hit home in a positive way
Added 8/2/2009
This is a great movie...it hit home in a positive way. I saw this movie three months post divorce myself (luckily with no kids, though). It was refreshing to see divorced men depicted in a way that wasn't about the typical "dead beat dads" that, after a divorce don't spend any time with their kids and skip out on alimony payments whenever they can. This movie touched me deeply at the time by showing me that I was not alone in such an ordeal as divorce and That there are many,many men out there who were just like me: trying to get on with life after a failed marriage.
I happened to recently stumble across this movie many yrs later on tv and still think it is just as great now as it was when I first saw it in 1995. Its subject matter is real and intense but deals with it in a light hearted, warm and funny way. Oh, the acting isn't bad either, especially good performance from Quaid. This movie is about real dads, how men cope without a spouse and about family values, even if the family isn't together as a whole. Watch it! Its not just a chick flick.

I absolutely loved this movie. It is a great movie to see how men deal with divorce and taking care of their kids on the weekends when they have visitation as well as the men trying to get on with their own lives.

I have always loved this movie. I think my favorite part is with Janeane Garofalo on the blind date.
