Famke Janssen's charm fails to rescue the movie from a dull screenplay.

Kimberley Jones Austin Chronicle Rated: 2/5 Mar 10, 2003 Full Review Jonathan Foreman New York Post Marred by some soppy sections, casting that undermines the story's believability and a kind of self-consciousness that makes it hard to really care about the characters. Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Ernest Hardy Film.com It's slick, polished to perfection, derivative and stripped of any of the real quirks or idiosyncrasies that make a romantic comedy fly. Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews This one tastes like a sour apple I had on a blind date many eons ago. Rated: C Feb 15, 2008 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher [S]trives for the meaningful exploration of how Xers sabotage their romances, and falls horribly flat...

Audience Member Amusing with wit good relationship tips Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/28/24 Full Review Audience Member One of my favorite indie, quirky, romantic comedies! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member ***Due to the recent RT changes that have basically ruined my past reviews, I am mostly only giving a rating rather than a full review.*** Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member The charming lead actors almost manage to make an insipid screenplay palatable. Still, there's enough rough edges in this indie romantic comedy to make it better than most -- which isn't saying much. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Cute film. Probably Valerie Breiman's best work. Famke Janssen did a good job and Favreau was very good impersonating writer/director Adam Rifkin, whom his character was based on. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Really good, and sadly on point. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
