Critics Consensus

Aside from a few laughs, everything else is entirely predictable, including the jokes.

Rick Groen

Globe and Mail

A mundane sitcom with feature pretensions, the kind where the comic 'situation' is simply a coat-rack for hanging a rag-tag assortment of inflated sight gags and telegraphed punch lines.

Rated: 2/4

Jeff Strickler

Minneapolis Star Tribune

Spade serves as both star and co-writer of this lame, crass romantic comedy. Most of the jokes he's written fall flat, and his delivery isn't much better.

Los Angeles Times

Nothing but a cynical, astonishingly inept attempt to copy Mary's formula.

Rated: 1/5

A love story, but Spade is way too smug to appear the slightest bit sincere in his scenes with Marceau for it to work at all on that level.

A stupid romcom that feels like it's nothing more than a mediocre sitcom episode. So much can be said about what's wrong with this, from the writing, casting, etc but the singing bit at the end was the one thing that worked for me. It almost felt like an Indian movie if it didn't sound like the actor couldn't sing. And Sophie Marceau is nice to just look at the whole time, so it wasn't all bad, lol.

Hilarious concept for the movie and it really fits into that early 2000s and late 90s rom-com genre amazingly well. The way that Spade and Lange played off of each other was right up with Spade's stuff he did with Chris Farley. The numerous instances of trying to hide the dog to get close to the female love interest were incredibly inventive and hilariously executed. One of my favorite movies

David Spade is funny but based on this rom-com I think David Spade is much more suited for SNL sketches and other various comedic supporting roles. Him trying to write an actual screenplay laced with his jokes results in films like ‘Lost & Found'
