Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Well, I'm not cinema professional, so I have no right to judge how actor plays, how camera works and so on. But in general this movie made me feel positive (what happens not so often). Of course, this movie is quite simple, but it contains positive example of communication between man and woman, small pickup lesson and interesting behavior patterns (there are some things to model, in terms of NLP). For me it is interesting to see how people can behave to be interesting, so if you're looking for the girl of your dream, this movie is good to tune up yourself for successful and positive communication with woman. And it is also pleasant to see (for guys like me) how guy from 'lover league' have success with girl from 'upper league'. For me, this move contains more positive charge, than many high-rated movies. Moreover, I like soundtrack.

We just finished watching this on DVD. I like A.M.H. He's done his hard knocks. With that in mind, we rented the movie.The film was a bit disjointed. Half an hour into the movie someone secondary character starts with a direct-to-camera monologue -- which was fine, but it just came out of the blue. That treatment was repeated a few times and it worked once the precedent had been set. My girlfriend and I both do community theater. The direction of the play made us both think that it had been adapted from a stage play but that there were moments where the director didn't quite know how to make a scene work. Cathfinn's (other commenter) point is very valid about the borderline softcore porn opening scene. Almost like the director put that in on a dare. Doesn't contribute one lick to the plot and the dialogue about the archetypes of women could have been better supported.Most of my problems with this movie has to do with the director's decisions. The acting was adequate or better; the plot was sound; the scene changes and camera shots did a lot of harm to the picture as a whole.***(Possible spoiler)*** Our biggest problem was with the two buddies. Throughout most of the movie, they're a couple of "playahs"; masters of the one night stand. They begin some inevitable progression as a result of Josh's search. Great. Then, once Josh seems to have found someone, they both totally regress into their pre-growth mindsets and then, a little later, seem to (but not clearly) suggest that they might be back on the learned track. Waaaay to up & down to be credible.

Seen this movie recently...definitely one of the weirder romantic comedies which I've seen.Much of the acting is laughable, and the directer seems to have shot it in the style of a 1980's soft porn.no, Not joking! There is regular tacky female semi-nudity at the start of the film, which is just plain weird for a Rom com.The main characters 'buddies' are hard to like. Their characters are so outta whack u wonder what they could possibly have in common. The only saving grace is the watchable performances of the two leads who do their best with a dire script. Girls if your looking for a likable chick flick ..avoid this like a disease.

The story is lame. The acting is terrible. It's one of those films that opens poorly and you sit and think that it just has to get better. Don't hold your breath. If someone forces you into a room to watch this film, run...do not walk...to the nearest exit. The film contains a string of unrelated cheesy shots of many women who I am sure are very beautiful in real life. But the photographer seems to have gone out of his way to make them appear ghastly. The marketing for this film promises a chick-flick for Valentines Day. What the director delivers is a poorly written concept about a guy who is tempted to take advice from his friends about finding a girl. He should have spent some time finding better friends first. These are people you do not want to visit. This is not "Sleepless in Seattle". It is more like "Brain-Dead in the Big City".
