Nostalgic 80s LA romantic comedy with John Ritter John Bennett Perry, Connie Sellecca, Scott Bakula, and Shannon Tweed.

John Bennett Perry is Matthew Perry's dad!

John Ritter looks very handsome and is extremely athletic. He meets Connie Sellacca and falls in love at first sight. He is a Michigan alumni.

Connie Sellecca has been dating the same guy for years and has lost touch of what she really wants. She has become a puppet.

Her fiancé, John Bennett Perry, is taking her for granted.

John Ritter is a playboy but after he meets Connie Sellecca, he realizes he wants much more. And he is determined to not let her go.

He runs around all over Los Angeles to find her again and wants to profess his love and stop the wedding.

Movie is about slowing down and being with the right person and not just with a good looking man.

Rest in peace John Ritter and Matthew Perry. Very nostalgic 80s Los Angeles scenery in Echo Park, downtown LA, LA Zoo, and Los Feliz. Also beautiful mountains of Acapulco, Mexico.

Movie highlights comedic and athletic talents of John Ritter.

It's nice to see a movie that isn't full of sex and violence for a change. This well-used plot of "girl is about to marry wrong guy - hero steps in, they fall in love, and she marries him instead" is all too familiar, but Connie Sellecca is attractive and plays her part well. It's nice to see John Ritter in something other than "Three's Company" reruns (which I don't watch!). Watch this one just for the fun of it.

This is an excellent light comedy that should cheer one up even during the worst blues. I usually watch it when I am sad, and, guess what, it takes the blues away. Guaranteed! You will find several parallels to "The Graduate," such as the general plot line (a guy fighting for his love, who is about to get married to somebody else) and some scenes (like the one when Phil-John Ritter is watching Gloria-Connie Sellecca through the glass ceiling and shouting her name) that could have been meant as "Graduate" travesties, however, in good spirit and. There is no Mrs. Robinson, though.

In general: full of fun, sense of humor, good acting and excellent moral message. Recommended!

Ritter has always been a grade a peckerwood who thinks he's a comedian ... i only watched this movie because of shannon tweed and connie sellecca are two beautiful women that perform well in whatever they do ... the rest is truly bad including that putz scott bakula

This film is predicable and very dated. It looks like a 1980's TV episode. But it is also at times very funny. This film has several great moments of laugh-out-loud slapstick humor. John Ritter is terrific, as is Paul Sand in a small supporting role.
