An entertaining refreshing new comedy!

What Love Is spins a great twist on the romantic comedy and turns the usual genre upside down on its head. Directed by Mars Callahan, this film has a great ensemble cast with stars, such as: Cuba Gooding Jr., Mathew Lillard, Sean Astin, Anne Heche, Andrew Daly, Gina Gershon, Tamala Jones, Jud Taylor, Shiri Appleby, Victoria Pratt and Terrance 'T.C.' Carson. The scenes in this film were great. It is a frank, unapologetic film that explains at its very core what Love truly means. Mathew Lillard was amazing as Sal, especially in the scene about monogamy, Sean Astin's character's diatribe about women is great, Andrew Daly's scenes with Mathew Lillard and Anne Heche are hilarious! It's a great Valentines Day movie for guys. I don't know how many times I remember having similar conversations with my friends about women just like these characters do in this film. The writing seems almost as if it were recorded. What Love Is is a laugh out loud, realistic riot that will keep you entertained and satisfied that you went to see what could be the best comedy of the year.

A great movie to see how guys think

I feel compelled to warn users "Dont listen to critics" I am an average person male and I watch a lot of movies. I am not a professional and often times think they lose the point of enjoying a film due to the fact they are always looking for whats wrong with it. I had the opportunity to view this film and thought it was a fresh take on the situations that arise from the dilemmas of love. I thought the dialogue was very honest and sincere. At times a bit over the top but none the less accurate. I have been in all these situations personally and know that a lot of men have too. These days the illusion of love is portrayed in the movies as being fairytale like and in reality it is far from it. The perspective given is of friends with different personalities all looking for love. The characters do a fine job of spanning all lifestyles and situations. The conversations are truthful and honest. I highly recommend this movie if you are trying to understand male thinking in relationships. So give it a try and see what it does for you before you accept the word of a critic

Investors be PROUD!

I saw this film at the screening and Big Sky, the investors, and all involved should be very proud of this film! It is well done and funny, pretty naughty, but funny! A must see this Valentines! Matt Lillard is AWESOME! The way he maintains his character through-out the film is great. I think I've met this guy at every bar I've ever been in at closing time! The contrast between the men and women is hilarious! This is "Sex in the City" with the men voicing their view! All of the cast is first rate and they do an excellent job. The scene with Andrew Daly and Anne Heche is VERY funny! I loved Jud Tylor in this....Gina Gershon....what can you say...always very HOT!!!!!!

Too much talk

Great actors in a script with far too much talk.

This was probably written to be a stage play, that's the entire feel of it.

Way too much chatter, non=stop.

All good actors but of course, Cuba and Gina shine.

Also way too much swearing and sex talk...far more than needed.

Gina and Cuba are just amazing.

Gets tiring very quickly

I have a sneaking suspicion that writer/director/actor Mars Callahan originally conceived this movie as a stage play - almost the entire movie takes place in one place, for one thing. But the stagy feeling of the enterprise is just a minor quibble compared to the real problems this movie suffers from. The previous user commenter used the word that I would best describe this movie - "exhausting". Everyone talks very quickly, and the editing is so rapid-paced that it makes a Russ Meyer movie look absolutely restrained. It's not just the speed of the words that hurt the movie, however - everyone in the movie comes across as unbelievably crude and obnoxious. No one is sympathetic or even interesting. The only scene in the movie that works is the last one, which is calmly acted and directed enough that it's interesting. Apart from that last scene, the only other praise I can give the movie is that despite its low budget, it is professionally lit and photographed.

Towards the end, during the scene where Sal is sitting on the couch and drinking a scotch, you can see the level of liquid on the glass go up and down on several occasions, as the camera changes angles.

Citations
Tom: I know you got a lot on your mind. I know you got a lot of things to figure out. And, uh, up until very recently I thought I needed you here. With me in my life to feel the way I feel about you. But just all of a sudden I just suddenly realized I don't. I mean, I want us to be together and everything. But I just realized I don't need you here with me in order for me to love you. Cause I'm always gonna love you. And if you were to leave right now and go to China for 6 months, I'm still gonna love you. And if you gain 50lbs, I'm still gonna love you. And, you know what, if after the moment I never see you again, I'm still gonna love you. And if you don't feel that way about me, I know it's gotta be tough on ya, 'cause, it's been hell on me as it is. And I know that your the greatest thing that ever was. And I'm just lucky to have spent the last three years of my life with you.

Tom: I think you should go and figure out whatever it is you need to figure out. And if you wanna come back, come back. And if you don't, that's cool too. You gotta know that you are the love of my life. And I'm just lucky to have known you. Good night Sara
