Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

I found "Singles" to be a pleasant enough watch, but nothing really special. It deals - albeit in a generally optimistic way - with people getting screwed over by relationships, and makes the point that the reason establishing a connection with someone is so hard is because, in love, everyone plays by their own rules... I feel as if I know this only too well from my personal life, and given the subject matter, I felt like I maybe should've identified a bit more. The focus on unifying threads together is never really strong though, and although the characters are likable, we never stay with them long enough to find if they'll ever straighten their problems out.It also leans rather too heavily on the music culture of the time, and the bleakness of grunge doesn't really mesh well with the larger sentiment that these are young people with their lives in front of them just trying to find their place in the world.The film does have its good points though. Matt Dillon is hilarious, and delivers (I think) one of the funniest comedic performances ever as a clueless band front-man trying to make it on the scene as he's weighed down by finding himself in a committed relationship... It's absolutely worth seeing the movie just for his turn alone, and it gave me a whole new esteem for him.The wider perspective for me though is that, in my opinion, Crowe peaked artistically with first "Jerry Maguire" and then "Almost Famous"; I wasn't at all impressed with "Elisabethtown", and I get the sense that even his earlier work was just a fertile testing ground for his two more polished efforts later...

This movie combines the aspects of any typical romantic comedic but without less cheesy moments with cheesy music with realistic moments with realistic dialogue and kick ass music. The film excels in how it doesn't take itself seriously, possibly in an undertone of how dating should be, just trying to have fun without taking it too seriously. The movie isn't laugh out loud funny, but it cherishes its quality or quantity in this film. The number cameos in the film really add a different dimension and maybe even some credibility. The two main characters had great chemistry.The film lacks in certain aspects such as the character Janet can be somewhat schizophrenic. Furthermore, I believe the film ended a little too abruptly and didn't expand much on the normal social lives of the characters, besides Janet.I would highly recommend this film unless you're a poser or a wanna-be thug.

These are the same humorous stories of neurotic, wounded, gullible, vain, and humiliated people we see and hear fourteen(!) years after this movie came out, but this is an original that's still witty and fresh. Cameron Crowe's thoughtful exploration of single life has universal appeal.Having said that, this movie is also an unabashed love letter to Seattle as well as a portrait in miniature of one the city's heydays: the height of grunge-rock scene.The previously overlooked Seattle suddenly outshone NYC, LA, and SF (if only for a few years) as the coolest city in America, thanks to the mass appeal of local bands like Nirvana, Alice in Chains (who have a performance in the film) and Pearl Jam (who are acting in this film).The city itself becomes a character in the film and even it's famously damp weather couldn't keep it from being seen, through Cameron's eyes, as a terribly romantic and lively place to live in.(Luckily for Seattle it's still seen as a sophisticated metropolis, long after grunge, "Singles", "Frasier", Starbucks, and the novelty surrounding them all faded away.)There's no need for future generations to do any retrospective films about early nineties Seattle; "Singles" is all we need.
