Just perfect...

Good concept, poorly executed.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

This was a good little romantic movie. It has the typical messages or themes. Many "moral to the story" moments. But, if well presented, which this movie is, I don't think people get tired of watching such predictable story lines.Movie has it all. There are depictions of greed, lust, bimbos, stupidity, ethics, romance,love. As always, this movie gives people what they want, a happy ending. You conclude that things always work out in the end, guy gets the girl, success in business if you work hard are other messages.All in all a fine movie. After watching it you do not feel like you wasted your time.WARNING: if you watch this with a chick. Be ready for some questions like "honey, what would you do in that situation." Roto

Charlie Sheen is so lovable as Ryan in this movie! This is one of his best movies, of course after the epic Major League and Hot Shots. He's plays well with Denise Richards, although she was painfully wrongfully cast as Cindy. His subsequent relationship with Page is much more entertaining. I enjoyed Page's secretary and all her one-liners and blatant innuendos directed at Ryan. Charlie played the fallen business man very well. I adored Rosanna Arquette and still maintain that she is the only talented one in that family. Her relationship with her plastic surgeon husband was so funny... perhaps even more funny than Charlie's desperation. This film is a must-rent!

Good Advice is built on sexist and ageist stereotypes. The attempts at humour could only have been more obvious if accompanied by canned laughter. The jokes are cringe-worthy to the point where it is embarrassing to hear. The dialogue is at best predictable and clichéd. The "story" is syrupy, unbelievable and littered with plot-holes large enough to drive a truck through.This film is obviously aimed at an immature, naive audience -- the only group that would be able to enjoy it. Avoid this garbage at all cost if you have any taste whatsoever. It isn't worth gambling the 93 precious minutes of your life that would confirm my opinion.

It takes a lot for me to enjoy a romantic comedy I usually don't. But "Good Advice" is one of the few that I would recommend. It is funny! The whole movie too. This is so well written and directed that there is not a dull moment anywhere in it. The actors are ALL perfectly cast with Charlie Sheen, Denise Richards and Barry Newman especially so. What is really good about this film is that the writers concentrated on the humorous storyline about the lovelorn column deception and not pad it out with unneeded romantic scenes between the two main characters. The film reminds me of those type of "frothy" comedies they made in the 1960's (without the heavy sexual humor that this film has of course) and because of it's unique blend of comedy, light romance and pathos the makers ended up with a witty highly entertaining movie.
