I just watched Reign Over Me. Brilliant movie.
Normally one would think it would not be something for me, because it's a "human drama" story. But it's a good one, it avoids the usual sentimental sand traps most of these movies are mired in.
And importantly, it has a lot of humor. It's subtle, of the kind people may not remember after, but it's there all the time. One small example: a therapist, played by lovely Liv Tyler, is told by a defensive patient that what he thinks about are her perfect tits. And next session she is wearing the bulkiest sweater you ever saw... and it's not even mentioned! That's excellent.
There's a bit of dangeous casting by Adam Sandler as the messed up guy, but he actually does a wonderful job.
One of the main themes of the film is also unique (so far as I know): even if it's obvious that a person needs to Get Help, and Open Up, and Face His Past, how much can you do for him? How much can you push him? Can you really help him? Is it him you really want to help, or youself?

Reign Over Me October 18, 2008
Adam Sandler takes on a role that challenges his acting range. He plays a depressed middle age man who wants nothing to do with the world. Don Cheadle plays a Dentist who runs into Sandler's character on the street. Cheadle and Sandler used to be college roommates studying to become dentists. The two start talking and catching up. Cheadle soon realizes that Sandler needs mental help and tries to get it for him. Sandler wants nothing to do with it. This is a very sad movie and Adam Sandler as well as all the other actors do a superb job. I highly recommend this movie. But beware if you are expecting a comedy performance from Sandler. A+
I dont know why I love it so much. October 12, 2008
I wont go on with an extensive review here, as I think there are enough. I will say that this movie sparks a range of emotions within me every time I watch it. I laugh one moment, cry(or try not to) the next. I dont read into all the character development, or the 9/11 storyline like most of the negative reviewers have. I watch and enjoy. Every single time.
Grief can be your worst enemy! October 6, 2008
I have always been touched when i watch ANYTHING about 9-11. this movie took it's toll, to see adam sandler typical humorous and charming actor, play this horribly sad and grieving husband and father was amazing!! what a sad life to lead and the worst part about that is that alot of people faced the same hurtles in NY after this happened......
