Along Came Polly: Review

A romantic comedy whose no-holds-barred gross-out elements sour an already graceless mix of crude pratfalls and heartache. Pathologically cautious Reuben Feffer (Ben Stiller) has channeled his aversion to uncertainty into a lucrative career in risk-assessment and thinks he's made a prudent marriage to lovely realtor Lisa (Debra Messing). He even decides impetuously to surprise Debra by buying the house they both fell in love with but rejected as a little out of their price ra... read more

Along Came Polly: TV Guide News

NBC Going to the Movies | Today's News: Our Take | 4/20/2007
Although in recent years theatrical movies have been largely relegated to the Saturday-night death slots, NBC is hoping to help them make a comeback — and gambling big to do so — by scheduling three of them for lucrative Sunday berths during May sweeps. Besides a last airing of Shrek, the Peacock will run the broadcast premieres of Along Came Polly and National Treasure.

Debra Messing's Graceful Pregnancy | Today's News: Our Take | 1/21/2004
Debra Messing isn't too lucky in love on Will & Grace, where her estranged TV spouse has gone off to Cambodia. And she's no prize in Along Came Polly — currently in theaters — as Ben Stiller's cheating bride. Off camera, however, she and husband Daniel Zelman are quite happily married and eagerly awaiting the birth of their first child. "I feel wonderful," sighs Messing, 35. "I am beside myself with happiness. [Having a baby] is something I wanted my whole life, and it is everything that I hoped for. I can't wait to meet our child." In case you're wondering, Messing's baby bliss will stay out of her story line on Will & Grace. With Grace's marriage to Leo crumbling, it was bad timing for the sitcom's writers to incorporate a child. After all, the show's supposed to be a comedy, not a tragedy! But was the idea ever considered? "For, like, a second," she acknowledges. "It just very quickly became a read more
Jennifer Aniston: Gotta Dance! | Today's News: Our Take | 1/20/2004
As Rachel on Friends, Jennifer Aniston doesn't show off her dancing skills too often. She struts her stuff in Along Came Polly (currently in theaters), but quickly realized all that hoofing around is a lot of harder than it looks. "I was supposed to be a really good salsa dancer. I took two classes. I was supposed to take more, but I didn't," Aniston admits. "We [only] had two days shooting in New York, and then, the next bit for me was all of the salsa dancing. It was six days straight. My feet looked like raw meat. It was just disgusting, but it was so much fun. I loved it, I loved learning how to dance." And then, a tragic twist. "Right after we shot those six days, I broke my toe," the 34-year-old says with a sigh. "So thank God we took care of all that stuff." Turns out, shaking and shimmying with costar Ben Stiller didn't cause the broken digit. Aniston reluctantly takes respon read more
Ben Stiller Bites Back | Today's News: Our Take | 1/19/2004
Ben Stiller has bad luck with his animal costars. In Meet the Parents, he chased after a sneaky cat that had defiled the ashes of a dead relative. In Along Came Polly — currently in theaters — his on-screen girlfriend, Jennifer Aniston, has a blind pet ferret that roams free in her apartment, bumping into stuff. But Polly's feisty ferret got into even more trouble off screen — the critter attacked Stiller! "I was bitten by the ferret, but I didn't do anything, I swear," Stiller insists. "I was holding him up and he did this crazy turn-around thing. He literally attached himself to my chin and he didn't let go. "It was a surreal thing where it's like, 'OK, the ferret is on my chin,'" he continues. "Their teeth are sharp like razors. read more
