Personally, Michelle Pfeiffer has always been a brilliant actress who makes truly two-thumps-up films. After the innocent Madame de Tourvel in "Dangerous Liaisons"; graceful Susie Diamond in "The Fabulous Baker Boys"; Confucius-like Louanne Johnson in "Dangerous Minds" ; ambitious Tally Atwater in "Up Close & Personal", it's undoubtedly wonderful to see her portray a real normal role that clings to real life, which makes me feel so close to her. George Clooney has the unique looks to play both normal man like Jack Taylor in this film and others like Daniel Ocean in "Ocean's Eleven", Ulysses McGill Everett ("O, Brother, Where Art Thou?"), Billy Tyne ("The Perfect Stor"), Thomas Devoe ("The Peacemaker") and so on. It's a great enjoyment to see these two talented actors star together in this story which gives just the wonderful description to the busy lives of modern people in big cities.

This is not a love story to me, but a story of modern busyness and love between parents and chidlren. Nowadays, people're busy with works and big events, and neglect the importance of spending time with their children, or can't be perfect at both. This film interpert the truth in a funny and warm way. It not just point out what modern people are really like, but all the potential problems (like in this film, a cellular phone mix-up, cat-eaten classroom fish, a crushed architectural model, a marble that has to be surgically removed from a small nostril, a lost child and various other crises). But even though all these catastrophes which may end up both Melanie and Jack's careers all add up in this hectic day, they finally go through all of them and it turned out to be one fine day.

I have three favorite films of all times, this is one of them. I fall in love with it when I first saw it, and till now, it remains my favorite one. "One Fine Day", a truly real, convincing, interesting, and close-to-life ONE FINE FILM!

Jack (George Clooney) is a divorced journalist with a daughter named Maggie. When his former wife goes on her honeymoon with husband number two, Jack is left in charge of Maggie, something that does not occur very often. He has instructions to pick up a classmate of Maggie's but fails to arrive on time. Nevertheless, Jack does meet up with the boy and his mother, Melanie (Michelle Pfeiffer) at the school. All of them have missed the bus to the class field trip. Melanie is miffed and she and Jack have it out. However, during the course of the day, they will need each other and meet again at various times. Will Melanie stay angry with charming Jack forever? This adorable movie will be an enduring favorite for the next century and beyond. The two stars are so gorgeous and the youngsters playing the children are huggable beyond words. The plot is a string of funny encounters between Jack and Melanie, at the day care center, at the ice cream parlor, at a soccer game and more. Are you looking for a top of the line romantic comedy to vanquish the blues? Look no further, this is it!

When movies of today try and capture that "old-fashioned" feeling, usually it's the "values" that they're trying to recapture, forgetting that if you don't make a good movie, what you're left with is two hours of preaching. This movie, on the other hand, may be trying to capture that "old-fashioned" feeling, but the values it's after are the values of craftsmanship and intelligence, two things rarely seen in comedies these days. Oh, yes, and chemistry; Clooney and Pfeiffer have it in spades here. The fact that it's set among the world of working parents and, for the most part, tries to get the details right, also helps. And, oh yeah, it's funny. It is a little cloying at times, and the end feels abrupt, but overall this is a pleasing movie.
