Clyde (Joe Torry) and his photographer pal Montel (Rusty Cundieff) meet gold digger Adina (Paula Jai Parker) and her friend Brandy (Tisha Campbell), a law student, at a party. While Clyde convinces Adina that he's wealthy, Montel and Brandy pair off and get along well. Adina is furious when she learns Clyde has misled her, but when they learn their friends plan to marry -- which would force the two enemies to spend time together -- they put their differences aside to thwart the marriage.

Perhaps one of the best things that can be said about Sprung is that it is not as bad as the profitable but completely insipid Booty Call. Go to Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times 01/01/2000

The plot might have worked if the characters had been allowed to emerge as halfway convincing people. Go to Full Review Michael Dequina TheMovieReport.com 12/27/2006

Nov 10 hilarious movie! love the creativity of director Rusty Cundieff who also did an amazing job as the leading man. a must watch! the plot is not going to shock you but as mentioned the path we go to get there is hilarious and i guess you can say there is a little trick at the end! See more 11/22/2022 This is my favorite favorite movie of all times I watch it numerous times all year long!!!!!!!!!! See more 06/29/2020 Good enough...90's rom-com! Worth watching @ least once. See more 07/04/2015 A quirky love story, Tisha Campbell was excellent in her role. See more 11/15/2013 Completely unwatchable. Neither entertaining nor funny. I enjoy both the genre and the time period of this movie, but this is the worst movie I have seen in recent memory, and Ive watched more than my share of bad movies. 1/2 star at best.
