Along Came Polly, but there goes 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 friend (the one banned from picking movies for the next... Read full review »
Along Came Polly --- obsessive compulsive meets spur of the moment
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 remain alone forever, and finds someone new to... Read full review »
Polly Came And Went
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 now that I have adjusted to fatherhood, the long...

Along Came Polly (2004)
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 character over and over again, and frankly, it's...

Along Came Polly, A Long Lame Folly
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 cashew against the sidewalk before sticking it into...

Polly wants some more plot development, but she's a funny bird anyhow
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 flat, uninspiring, and robbed him of his best comedic...

Polly Want A Reuben?
"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 company run by Stan Indursky (Alec Baldwin)... Read full review »
Along Came Polly: Cute, Funny, and Unoriginal
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, The Matrix) and family movies (Elf, Finding Nemo) so... Read full review »
Funniest film of the Millennium thus far...
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 far this Millennium and Stiller's funniest since... Read full review »
Could've been the next "There's Something About Mary," instead it's "Fools Rush In 2"
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 performance is supposed to make up for the lame... Read full review »

Along Came Polly Widescreen Edition DVD
Writer-director John Hamburg writer of ZOOLANDER and MEET THE PARENTS teams once again with Ben Stiller to make an offbeat character study that is guaranteed to induce helpless laughter. Reuben an overanxious insurance risk analyst Stiller weighs his every action by assessing pros and cons. He finds himself dumped on his honeymoon by fickle wife Lisa Debra Messing who runs off with Jacques a nudist scuba instructor Hank Azaria. A few days later Reuben is back in New York at a pretentious gallery opening wondering why he's bothering to test the waters so soon when along comes Polly Price Jennifer Aniston a quirky worldly adventurous soul whose only flaw appears to be a generalized lack of commitment. The formerly germ-obsessed controlling Reuben is transformed by Polly's free spirit her predilection for spicy food and her pet ferret. Her love of salsa dancing makes him jealous and painfully uncomfortable. But his heart is aflame. Hamburg who began his directorial career with SAFE MEN has proven himself a reliable producer of charming realism and a brand of comedy comparable to that of the Farrelly brothers. Editor William Kerr has an extraordinary sense of comic timing which gives ALONG CAME POLLY's funny factor a boost. Stiller's salsa solo is striking--the actor is actually an amazing dancer. Last but not least Philip Seymour Hoffman PUNCH DRUNK LOVE FLAWLESS nearly steals the show as Reuben's best friend Sandy Lyle who plays both Jesus and Judas in a community production of GODSPELL.

Along Came Polly (Spanish Subtitled) [VHS]
Opposites are forced to attract in Along Came Polly, a dose of featherweight fluff that could've been better and could've been worse--surely no pairing of Ben Stiller and Jennifer Aniston can be a complete waste of time, right? Faint praise indeed, but fans of these mainstream funny-folk will enjoy this movie as a lazy-weekend distraction. Ben's a newlywed insurance risk-assessment analyst whose wife (Debra Messing, in a throwaway role) betrays him on their honeymoon. His uptight, play-it-safe lifestyle (which includes acute aversion to germs and irritable bowel syndrome) makes him seemingly incompatible with the spontaneous, free-spirited Polly (Aniston), but writer-director John Hamburg (whose writing credits include the previous Stiller hits Meet the Parents and Zoolander) is determined to give them at least the appearance of romantic potential. No such luck. You will, however, get a few laughs from supporting players Philip Seymour Hoffman, Bryan Brown, and Alec Baldwin. --Jeff Shannon
