The lives -- and relationships -- of married brothers Mickey and Francis Fitzpatrick are disrupted by the presence of Heather, Mickey's ex-girlfriend. Heather has just reentered Mickey's life, but at the same time she's sleeping with Francis. Romantic entanglements, marital woes, and sibling rivalries result ... and teach the brothers Fitzpatrick a few things about the game of life.

Critics Consensus

A relationship comedy that errs on the side of slick, She's The One is a perfunctory study of machismo from a very male perspective.

3/5

A pleasant package then, easy on the eye, and gently charming but, like The Brothers McMullen, one which places Burns as a comfortable rather than cutting-edge moviemaker.

Burns manages to take on a laundry list of touchy issues in a relatively frank, unflinching manner. His characters retain their dignity and integrity without false dramatic redemption. It's a true adult saga.

A bland, so-so romantic comedy without the charm to see it through.

…She’s The One is so firmly focused on the men that the female characters are treated abysmally…

3.5/4

She's the One is the perfect dating movie for those who are well over puberty and are out there on the front lines.

A disappointing second feature from Ed Burns, the director of The Brothers McMullen.

Great characters, amazing music. Loved the interplay between the brothers and their dad

A bittersweet rom-com that struggles to live up to great expectations, deciding too often to play it safe with the talented cast. Had the script offered more risk in development for its characters we might have seen the best from Jennifer Aniston or Cameron Diaz. There are enjoyable moments, albeit too much repetition for my taste. Nonetheless, will perhaps contribute at some point in the future as part of a time capsule for anthropological study on mid 1990's NY relationships, especially for Irish-Catholic Brothers.

I watched the whole thing. It was kind of funny watching it now versus 1996. I would say it works best as a period piece.

I love this movie. Great acting, clever script and dialogue with tangible characters. The father son and son relationship cracks me up.
