The Family Man is a Brett Ratner Christmas time drama movie starring Nicholas Cage, Tea Leoni, and Don Cheadle. I've always adored this great movie for a number of reasons. First of all, the cast and their performances. Cage and Leoni will both really move you deeply with their performances. Cage can be both funny and very serious depending on what's going on at the time in this movie, and he's impressive at both kinds of acting. Tea Leoni is also pretty versatile in her performance, she has some funny lines and scenes, but overall the dramatic side of her acting is the main part of her performance. And Don Cheadle's job is to play a somewhat likable angel who sends Jack (Nicholas Cage) on this incredible journey. And his portrayal of the angel is pretty good, I mean it doesn't as much really serious scenes as Leoni and Cage's roles do, but even still he tackles what is necessary and does it well. I loved the script here, it's written with so much heart and real emotion. You can really feel the pain/love in these characters, and that's due to both the actors performances and the impeccably written script. The movie has scenes where you'll be laughing and scenes where you will almost cry and you'll pull so hard for these characters to end up happy and fulfilled in the end. I love the ending, it just sums the whole thing up so well. I suggest everyone experience this great film! You won't regret it :). 10/10.
