Synopsis: Longfellow Deeds (Sandler), a simple guy who never left his small town, inherits from the media empire of his uncle he didn't know. In New York he will have to navigate between the cmpany's executives, the media, and a girl (Ryder) he is falling in love with.
Review: I remember having a good time watching the movie in the cinema in 2002. Ten years later it gave me the same feeling, although I didn't remember it was so stupid sometimes. It is indeed a romantic comedy, but an Adam Sandler-style comedy, like there are Will Farrel, Eddy Murphy, Ben Stiller or Jack Black comedies. What is nice is the character played by Sandler, a simple guy that loves simple things and inspires people around him to be themselves, just by beeing next to them. He is a breeze of fresh in the rich New York society. Also brilliant is the character of the butler played by Turturro, funny as usual. It is actually the remake of 1936 Mr. Deeds goes to Town with Gary Cooper. From what I read many elements are taken from it, so I would be almost tempted to see the original.
