by three_ster  in Movies,  - Top 10, Jan 29 '05
Pros: Jennifer Aniston's beauty, some laughs
Cons: Debra Messing, weak supporting cast, where is the plot?
With Along Came Polly, we have a cookie-cutter romantic comedy that we have seen many times before on the big screen, as well as in Sitcom episodes. The plot remains the same, where we have our protagonist, who is jilted by a lover, feels they will ...

by pmills1210 in Movies, - Top 500, May 30 '04
Pros: Philip Seymour Hoffman has most of the best moments
Cons: The rest of the film is lacking in such good moments
"Along Came Polly" desperately wants to follow in the footsteps of another movie that stars Ben Stiller. Unfortunately, the operative word in that first sentence is desperately. Stiller stars as Reuben Feffer, a risk assessor at a New York insurance ...

Pros: Aniston, cute story
Cons: confusing message, sub-par characters, unoriginal, Stiller
Along Came Polly was one of those movies that I wanted to see in the theater but never got around to it due to my busy work schedule. So when they released it at Blockbuster a few weeks ago, I was there to rent it. It just so happens that my ...

Pros: Diehard Stiller fans will be pleased. Hoffman may be the next Chris Farley.
Cons: Woo hoo hoo, it's all been done.
The funniest thing about Along Came Polly is that a guy's got XX million dollars, yet he is still willing to stand on a toilet with his pants down, have his face violently collide with a hairy, flabby stomach (in a dozen takes, no less), and rub a ...

by lemon_lime - Top 1000, Apr 18 '04
Pros: PSH!
Cons: script, Stiller, execution
There is really no nice way to put it: Ben Stiller needs to find a new movie to make. Ever since his career kicked into overdrive, after the success of There's Something About Mary, Stiller has found himself more or less playing the exact same ...

Pros: some funny moments, Stiller, Brown
Cons: lots of crude humor, uninspiring romance
There are a lot of movies out right now that I'm itching to see, and one of them is Night at the Museum. An imaginative premise, a PG rating and an all-star cast led by Ben Stiller all add up to what promises to be a most entertaining movie. I ...

Pros: Hank Azzaria and Deborah Messing are funny.
Cons: Everything Else!
Introduction Yes my fellow epinionaters it is true. Youguyfriday, your moonlighting opinionater is back from his hiatus. I guess you might say that when one comes to Epinions they are forever changed and can not stay away for very long. So ...

by punkrawka - Top 500, Jan 18 '04
Pros: Excellent cast with wonderful chemistry; some great laughs
Cons: Predictable as far as romantic comedies go
Ben Stiller, frankly, has been more than a little bit on the skids for some time. Zoolander, for all of its wild satire on the state of the modeling industry, was one of the actor's worst cinematic decisions, confining him to a role that was ...

Pros: Good cast chemistry, funny throughout, Philip Seymour Hoffman
Cons: Been done before, Ben Stiller is the same in all his flicks
In the wake of so many failed romantic comedies, production companies seem to have shied away from this genre which once flourished at the box office. The trend appears to have curved towards films with awesome special effects (Lord of the Rings, ...

Pros: Funny Funny Funny, Hoffman and Azaria steal the show
Cons: too many male booties
In this day and age of countless spoofs and bathroom humor comedies, it’s nice to see a movie that has substance and actual good acting to accompany some very humorous situations. Along Came Polly is a prime example of that, the funniest movie so ...

by Chad9976 - Top 1000, Mar 18 '04
Pros: good performances
Cons: too many gross and wacky jokes that don't work
If Jim Carrey is trying to become the next Tom Hanks, it looks like Ben Stiller is trying to become the next Jim Carrey. I never noticed this until now because the film "Along Came Polly" is one of those types of comedies where the wacky actor's ...

by redsox75 , Jan 16 '05
Pros: Funny supporting cast, especially Hoffman
Cons: Lackluster writing and plot
The previews for Along Came Polly did not look terribly promising to me. Ben Stiller playing his usual shlub, in this case an insurance adjuster Reuben Feffer meets Jennifer Anniston playing the scattered free spirit. Somewhat against my will, ...

by dreaming4ever , Jan 18 '04
Pros: Philip Hoffman, countless hilarious scenes
Cons: Little chemistry between two leads, excessive bathroom humor, could've been funnier, somewhat predictable
Well, let me start by saying that in some ways 'Along Came Polly' was great and in other ways it needed some definite work! While watching the trailer for this movie with my mother on the Internet a week ago, I found myself laughing out of control, ...

by mrbrown - Top 1000, Jan 24 '04
Pros: Philip Seymour Hoffman is amusing...
Cons: ...in fact, just about the only amusing thing.
Watching the typically stinky January release that is Ben Stiller/Jennifer Aniston vehicle Along Came Polly, I could not help but think that perhaps any star pairing of a "Ben" and a "Jen" is simply a cosmic recipe for cinematic trouble. But, ...

by bntowen - Top 1000, Jun 16 '04
Pros: I didn't have to rewind the DVD
Cons: Only 15 words in this field huh? I CAN'T DO IT!
I owe an apology to the following actors: Ben Kingsley, Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, and especially Denzel. I weakened in the DVD rental isle, and passed you up for…Ben Stiller and Jennifer “The Hair” Anniston. I listened to my sister. ...
