The Family Man is 100% positive, slightly sentimental American entertainment for the whole family. It doesn’t have even the slightest fault, but there isn’t the slightest reason to watch it again. ()
This movie is greatly "diminished" by its ending. It was dashed off, unoriginal, and too naive because the speech wasn't that great. Otherwise, Nicolas Cage is pretty good here in his "raw state" and Leoni has something more to her. A classic if only in a nice Christmas atmosphere. ()
