      Lou Lumenick New York Post Holland lets things peter out midway, but it's notably better acted -- and far less crass - than some other recent efforts in the burgeoning genre of films about black urban professionals. Rated: 2/4 Apr 27, 2002 Full Review Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times A perfectly pleasant if slightly pokey comedy. Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 27, 2002 Full Review Dave Kehr New York Times A sweet-tempered comedy that forgoes the knee-jerk misogyny that passes for humor in so many teenage comedies. Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 27, 2002 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Aug 11, 2005 Full Review Luke Y. Thompson New Times Mandel Holland's direction is uninspired, and his scripting unsurprising, but the performances by Phifer and Black are ultimately winning. You'll find yourself wishing that you and they were in another movie. Jun 6, 2002 Full Review Ernest Hardy L.A. Weekly While the film is competent, it's also uninspired, lacking the real talent and wit to elevate it beyond its formula to the level of classic romantic comedy to which it aspires.
