Getting Played

Any movie with Vivaca Fox in it is doomed!! She CAN'T act!! This steaming hot pile of a mess, pretending to be a movie is no exception!! Who greenlighted this horrible script and cast Stevie Wonder?!

Unlike the previous reviewer, I actually watched the movie. As a matter of fact, when it started I thought I would get some things done around the house and watch it in the background but it totally got me. I had to sit and watch. The interplay between the couple and their friends was perfect. I have known people like these, playing a game instead of following their hearts in their relationships. The advice they get just pulls them farther from what they really want and creates way more conflict than ever. The chemistry between Bill and Vivica is hot when they aren't "playing the game". This is a fun, lighthearted film that is great for those times when you need a pick me up and want some sweet, old fashioned, relationship entertainment.

This move had potential, but didn't quite make the grade. I was hopeful when I read the cover of the DVD case. But, unfortunately, the directing was kinda bad. Some scenes had nothing to do with the movie at all and was a waste of time to even include. Such as the Joe Torry part. Maybe Joe simply wanted a more prominent part so they threw him a bone. But in doing so, it messed up the flow of the movie. Not that the flow was all that great before. I really hate to see a potentially good movie go to crap simply because of mistakes like bad editing and directing. I really feel this movie could've been good, otherwise. Instead, it ends up being so-so.

The reviews don't do this film justice; it's a very enjoyable, light-hearted comedy. It's like a 1930s screwball, but with more sex. Yet, there ends up being a real sweetness about it too.

I watched this for Joan Jett's gal pal Carmen Electra- whom really reminds me of Joan in some ways- and whom I'm quite fond of myself- but I ended up liking everyone in it! The big surprise here was Kathy Najimi as the therapist. Being the "Sister Act" (1992) and "Hocus Pocus" (1993) fan that I am, that was a real treat!

Recommended for anyone who just wants to chill with a fun, midnight movie.

i felt like watching a comedy, and i already knew what to expect of vivica))i was not disappointed. in all her roles to date she is very expressive on screen, sometimes in a wacky way, but always very entertaining. for any fans of her like myself you will NOT be disappointed. i can not believe this woman is way over 40 years old! same goes for Stacey Dash( if seen the recent movie "i could never been your woman", she has a high school teenager role and plays besides Michelle Pfeiffer which herself looks great at 40+, but still Stacey is jaw-breaking for ANY age). i can easily see how their looks and ATTITUdES here could get some women jealous of them))), but looks aside, Vivica A. Fox has always proved an actress that gets in her role well or very well( sometimes "over the top" but for a comedy that is expected and wishful at times). to sum it up here, she is so "entretainingly annoying".)) from the middle part to the end i was off the chair laughing.))))also the comedian Sheryl Underwood has a 5 minutes cameo as a stand up comedian, very funny.

OK, enough about her for now. this production has some clichés( less then expected for me, and the "feminist" issues do HAVE TWSISTS that should please everyone, or at least not annoy )( also a couple of remarks for "desired" people that have to "be" wealthy, yucksss). the only problem i found here is Bill Bellamy. i do not think he can act( or maybe is my perception of him because he getting jiggly with "my" sexy, big eyes Vivica A. Fox????hehehehe).anyhow if his character would have had been played by Jamie Foxx this might have been better then "booty call",yet another movie that has the score UNDER 5, and on which matter i can not see or understand why...they are both very as comedies based on situations and HILARIOUS at that as well.also the title, for a change makes perfect sense.

i give it 8 star because , as i said, i got what i was looking for and MORE.if i wanted to watch a thriller obviously this would have got 1 star, you get my drift.))recommended for young "wacky" couples that want to have some "jelousy " pillow fights.
