I really love this movie and I find Jennifer Lopez definitely a super-actress
(when Catch's mother-in-law asks her "what are you afraid of" and she answers "losing him" I find it breath-taking, or her reaction when her father tells her "I feel like I don't have a daughter anymore")
but I think there is something wrong with it, starting from the title: "angel eyes" doesn't fit at all its idea and spirit; I'd call it "scratch" or something like that, because looks like that is the main topic of the movie. Second, I think that Catch's character is contradictory and not credible: the main thing that bothers me is that he gets angry when someone talk about his past, so I assume he is actually pretending to be some-guy-with-no-past; what if, when someone tries to reminds his accident or his actual name, he went like catatonic, shivering and sweating? In my head, this way it would make me believe that his pain was so big that he couldn't express it in any way, making him even more mysterious and borderline. From this angle I found also contradictory that he was keeping his son's toys, but I loved the part when he grabs the trumpet in the club and starts to play, I found that scene a cornerstone of the movie.
Just my opinion. -

Yeah it's just too bad that that really wasn't made evident except from the cheesy song at the end and the brief moment at the beginning where she said, "look at my eyes" >_> Other than that, there was really no relevence to it, nor was this really ever a theme in the movie Most of the time Jennifer Lopez's eyes were anything BUT angelic in this film

Maybe her eyes were angelic to Catch. They were the last thing that he saw as he faded out and lost conciousness at the wreck scene, when she was talking to him. Later after Catch was walking the town and doing his good deeds, he caught a glimpse of her with her friends several times in the cafe. He always had this serious glance at her before they initiated their relationship. That's my take on the movie name anyway.
