50 First Dates (2004)
Plot:Henry(Adam Sandler),a Marine-life veterinarian,falls in love with Lucy(Drew Barrymore);but he later comes to know that Lucy suffers from Short-term memory loss due to an accident on the occasion of her Father's Birthday,due to which she does not remember anything which happened after one day,but she remembers everything which happened before her father's last Birthday.So,everyday,she wakes up and considers it as his father's Birthday,and even her brother and father make it feel like that!Now,it's the turn of Henry to help Lucy survive the problem and help her live like a normal person.How Henry does it forms the rest of the plot.
What I liked:
1.It's a romantic comedy,and I don't think the film's intention was to educate on Short-term memory loss.(Lolzz)
I believe what works the best for a romantic comedy are the background music and scenary,that's where the film scores with its pleasant and cheerful music,and the coastal atmosphere with Henry playing with the marine creatures looked lovely.
2.Drew Barrymore:She really looked lovely and gorgeous in the role of Lucy Whitmore,also she rocks in that Pink T-shirt!3.There were quite some good jokes,especially the ones with Henry and his friend,and not to forget,'Hi!I'm Tom'!
I did not like:
1.A couple of tasteless sex related comments!
2.A weak climax(Bane for a Romantic Comedy?)
Actually I was keen to watch Memento,but I couldn't and ended up watching a film which is said to be a spoof of it!Anyway,it's a Pleasant,Sweet and Cool Romantic Comedy!
Rating:7.5/10(Very very Good!)

This movie is on my list of favorite movies of all time. I like the Drew and Adam tandem so much. Looking back they've also united on the Wedding Singer movie. I watched is again in HD quality @ http://www.yayvideo.net and I'm still in love with that movie. I also like the soundtrack, especially that 'Somewhere over the rainbow' version.
Thanks for your comment!:)
