Overview

Re-teaming Adam Sandler with Drew Barrymore, his co-star from The Wedding Singer, as well as Peter Segal, his director on Anger Management, Fifty First Dates finds the funnyman playing veterinarian Henry Roth. More than content with a life of one-night-stands, Henry decides to give up his noncommittal lifestyle when he meets and falls for Lucy (Barrymore). However, when he discovers that Lucy has no short term memory, Henry finds himself having to win her heart again with every new day. Sean Astin and Rob Schneider also star.

Editorial Reviews

The success of Adam Sandler confounds innumerable detractors, who find most of his screen characters boorish, dimwitted, and frequently mean-spirited. In his latest film, however, the erstwhile Saturday Night Live star plays a slightly more endearing character, and he is also re-teamed with Wedding Singer costar Drew Barrymore, whose natural lovability rubs off on him. Sandler plays Henry, a water-park veterinarian whose seemingly idyllic life in Hawaii has failed to yield a lasting relationship. That all changes when he meets Lucy Whitmore (Barrymore), an adorable islander with only one drawback: She's afflicted with short-term memory loss and awakes every morning with all recollection of the previous day erased. The bulk of the movie revolves around Henry's progressively elaborate efforts to reintroduce himself each day, win Lucy's heart, and somehow imprint himself on her consciousness. Sandler's friend and SNL crony Rob Schneider plays an eccentric islander who helps Henry; Dan Aykroyd appears as Lucy's sympathetic doctor; and Sean Astin pops up as her self-absorbed but protective brother. Director Peter Segal demonstrates a keen appreciation of the material and doesn't allow Sandler to get carried away with the outrageous mugging he tends to rely on. Barrymore is typically adorable, and her warmth lends even more appeal to an already sympathetic character. Not without its gross moments but generally more restrained than most Sandler vehicles, 50 First Dates is a charming little comedy that will disarm the star's most vociferous critics and delight his diehard fans.
