Very well executed
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
I thought this movie reminded me of a lot of young women I know who are insecure about love, men, their bodies, their minds, even though they may be bright and attractive. It is a breath of fresh air to see a young woman poke fun of the way that we tend to over analyze things such as sex, the long awaited "phone call the day after," over thinking everything, and who or what holds the right answers to all of our questions about love, life, and relationships. I am sure if you polled intelligent, 20 something female college grads with good heads on their shoulders, they would find this movie amusing. Nice to see a movie that is not about the perfect in every-way girl finding the perfect in every-way prince charming.
I liked this film a fair amount and would have liked it more if the main character had been a little bit more consistent in her actions at the end of the film. Before that, though, I thought there was good chemistry between the two leads, and both of them were very likeable. Nick Chinlund was very good as a romantic lead -- I don't think he normally plays such roles, but maybe people will look twice at him now. The lead actress seemed like someone you could know. Word to the wise: This is definitely a chick flick, -- not that there's anything wrong with that.
First, ask yourself, 'If all these reviewers hated the movie so much why did they bother to write a review?' Because it sparked them.I just saw it, and I really liked it. I found it witty and entertaining, as a the movie was intended. Was the movie factual on every account like some of these reviewer anally pointed out? No, but it's NOT a documentary, it's a comedy....geez...lighten up.I think Ms Davis did a great job, and at the end when I found out that she wrote and directed as well as acted in it, I was impressed. I think she is a better Director/Writer then Actor, but her acting didn't take away from the film.This movie is a light-hearted comedy about the differences between men and women.....simple as that.
Don't listen to most of these reviewers. This movie is fantastic!!! Definitely give it a chance. It's the kind of film that you can't stop smiling throughout . . . especially if you're single and in your 20's. I'm amazed it wasn't widely released.
