Featured reviews
It's nowhere near as good as Cruel Intentions, but there's something about it that makes it one of those movies you watch just to blow off some steam. It's a cross between American Pie and Sex and The City, with a cast you used to see a lot in movies and TV shows of that time. And beyond. It's fluff entertainment at its most primal, with jokes that are so outrageous, it is bound to make you smile. The « penis song » still feel as awkward and unrealistic as it did twenty years ago, but it's just another example of the movie never taking itself seriously, or pretending to be anything but fun all over. To those who are in the right frame of mind for it. It's a good romantic comedy as well, with unexpected twists and a believable romance. The soundtrack is very good too, and should've been released then. At the end of the day, it's a fine little movie, that grows on you, the more you watch it.
Blatant attempt to recreate "There's Something About Mary," as Diaz is plopped into another movie that mixes tasteless humor with corny romance. While it's not as good as TSAM, it's quite funny and reasonably sweet. The main problem with the film is one of momentum. It will be skating along on an amusing riff or a sweet moment and then stumble and find itself splayed out on the sidewalk, looking confused. One doesn't feel deeply about the movie's rather sketchily drawn characters, weakening the dramatic moments, and the comedy, while more hit than miss, does miss more than one would like. But while all of these keeps it from being a great movie, it's really quite an enjoyable one.
This movie is very funny.I laughed out loud a lot.A lot of people here criticize it as if it was supposed to be some serious movie.Its a silly and sexy comedy with a lot of adult language.If you are offended by sex jokes its not the movie for you.I think Diaz and Applegate were great in it and its soooo refreshing to see actresses not being afraid to make fools of themselves on screen.
it could be just me but i really love this movie. i don't know one girl who doesn't have it in their DVD collection and i'm proud to be one of them....the movie is funny, stupid, and all around a good time. so its not gonna win any awards or looked upon as "superior" but come on, don't you remember what its like to watch a movie just for the sake of entertainment? i have a section of my movie collection devoted to those chick flicks that while embarrassing to have are my guilty pleasures and i can't feel bad for that. what more do you want out of a stupid/funny movie? please don't pull some critical analysis on this movie people cause it is what it is. take it for face value and relax...
It was absolutely horrendous and I loved every second of it.
