Very quirky, a hidden gem of the 90s and one of Martin's best films. A very nice satirical movie.

In it´s own weird way this is probably one of the best romances ever.

A fairytale-like story about a guy who is guided through his own inner world of doubts by a highway billboard. Nice variation of a RomCom.

An acidic and hopeful look at life in Los Angeles.

Quirky and off-kilter romantic-comedy that shines thanks to Steve Martin's unique delivery and some weird humor that involves an omnipresent freeway billboard. Seen this one a few times over the years and still holds up; just an easy-going movie. **3.75/5**

Okay, this is a bit of fluff, really, cinematically speaking. Comparable to a madcap comedy in the old days of cinema, it is witty and funny. I wouldn’t call it great, just good enough so that when I saw a DVD copy at a thrift store, I picked it up. I wouldn’t have thought to buy it new.
