Renee Zellweger plays an innocent and naive - and wacky - coffee shop waitress who has difficulty differentiating real life and soap opera life after witnessing the brutal murder of her abusive and demented husband (how DO women like that get hooked up with men like that?).
I'm still not sure of the purpose for Morgan Freeman and Chris Rock, who both provide comic relief (Freeman far better than Rock), but for this film? It seems as if two films were spliced together, making it uneven and in need of better editing (or major re-doing).
Greg Kinnear does well as the soap opera doctor who is the object of Renee's fantasy desires. Great scenes when they meet for the first time. Zellweger continues to be sweet, adorable and likeable.
