SHE'S THE ONE

SYNOPSIS:
While driving his New York cab, Micky (Edward Burns), picks up a pretty fare, Hope (Maxine Bahns), who he marries within 24 hours. His younger brother Francis (Mike McGlone) won't let Micky forget how Mickey's ex-fiance Heather (Cameron Diaz), was unfaithful to him, causing their breakup two years earlier. But now, Francis, who is married to Renee (Jennifer Aniston), is having an affair with Heather, unbeknownst to his brother. But then one day Heather happens to get into Micky's cab…

"Romantic comedy from the talented Edward Burns, She's the One brings together a talented ensemble cast, some of whom have gone on to bigger and better things since this film was made in 1996. There's a certain charm about the film, with its entertaining quips and relationship themes, although at times, instead of hip, it is a little crass and lack-lustre. Easy on the eye, each of the three female leads offers appeal, but the relationships don't always ring true. The sibling rivalry is unconvincing as is the chemistry (or lack of it) between the married couples. But Burns, Diaz, Bahns and Aniston inject an energy and charisma of their own, and they're fun to watch. Undemanding romantic entertainment, She's the One offers some amusing moments for relaxed video viewing."
