Scott Weinberg eFilmCritic.com By the time Bill Murray and Catherine O'Hara show up, you'll be knee-deep in your own hatred for this movie. That the pair somehow earn some laughs only makes one pissed that they weren't the stars of the film. Rated: 1.5/5 May 12, 2003 Full Review Read all reviews

Alain E A very good comedy about sex, but your mileage may vary. Free on Tubi. This is not going to be enjoyfull if you don’t realize that it is not intended as realistic. Neither lawyers nor sex therapists or the police behave the way we see them in the movie. There is very limited nudity or violence, but obviously a definite R . Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/25 Full Review Steve D Not the least bit entertaining despite the cast. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/24 Full Review Audience Member Feeble attempt at what should’ve been a screwball farce, this AB-shot flat comedy is the result of a decent script meeting the wrong director. Walters & Mohr are good, but I really wanted the movie that Spader was acting in. #nitrosMovieChallenge Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/28/22 Full Review Audience Member Although a bit silly and quirky, I enjoyed this movie. I was doing a rundown of movies with James Spader in them, and this one was next on my list. There are some great actors in this movie, and they make the best of a mediocre script. Spader is brilliant, as usual, as are O'Hara and Murray. Sexually charged and openly salacious, the movie is a romp of fun, making light of sexual therapists and their tactics. It is comical and crude; just enough to make it appropriate only for mature audiences. Enjoy, after the kids are in bed. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Bill Murray and Catherine O'Hara are funny. The rest is abysmal. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member I didn't like this movie because the movie was weird and not really funny or interesting.
