Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Hottoceame The Age of Commercialism
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
nfuente This one is really fun to watch. I like the light-hearted and stupidly funny tone of the movie and that is what makes a comedy appealing for me.This sort of comedy doesn't have to make sense to be a good watch for the audience and it is possible that some folks find it "not good" because of that.I am watching this sort of movies to switch off and have a laugh; because I know I am not watching a documentary or a movie aspiring for the Academy Awards.All in all an enjoyable ride for me!
dianaarous-34640 Well, judging from the comments/reviews, i guess i'm one of the few people who loves this movie ! i think it's fun to watch, and the chemistry between the actresses is amazing especially Cameron and Christina,it's not meant to be deep or meaningful or teach you something, personally all the sexual references were fun to me and it's not your usual romantic-comedy movie which is refreshing !The chemistry between the cast is very attracting, and the small details and the cozy atmosphere of their house along with their hangouts is really nice to watch, it feels like the characters really known each other from the 2nd grade.if you're not into sexual comedy it's not the movie for you, if you enjoy a fun mindless humor then you're gonna enjoy watching it !7.5/10 from me
begob Good comedy. It went full romantic in the end, but lots of laughs before that.Can't understand why people are down on this. It goes for love at first sight and sets as many obstacles as possible, with a good twist at the wedding.The three actresses create a good set of characters, and it's interesting to see the different personalities. Diaz carries it (although she can't dance), Applegate is razor sharp, and Blair is the beauty needing more screen time.The San Fran gay side goes over the top with the medical emergency blowjob, but anyone complaining about the vulgarity needs brain surgery. Through the eye. With a ... And the glory hole scene should have been trashier.
HelenMary This is a great girlie-film, and rom-com, heavy on the com; Cameron Diaz, Christina Applegate and Selma Blair were a great trio and committed to their roles 100% and were pretty brave about it! This is basically a girls-looking-for-love with a hint of the now common 'reading a rule book on relationships' and realising the disparity between what women want and what men want in relationships, or what girls want in relationships but are afraid to actually commit to.Cameron Diaz and Christina Applegate were brilliant, and their chemistry was flawless - they are both very talented comedic and physical actresses; Diaz shone and is very attractive in this role. As ever Jason Bateman was awesome (when is he not?) and Thomas Jane as the love interest was cute and believable. Selma Blair had some great comedic moments and her dry straight performance made her antics funnier too.Hilarious, non stop laughs, mostly at the expense of adult humour, this isn't one for younger viewers, not a family film, but great for couples, girls nights in and even guys viewing (there's plenty to keep boys interested!) Given the sexual nature of most of the laughs it's not gratuitous and the language isn't that bad either, and there's no nudity - if these things worry you. The dance number in the Chinese Restaurant (!) is one of the many scenes in which the comedy turns quirky and off the wall and is naughty so not for those who don't like reference to parts or sexual experience, but for the rest of you prepare to laugh and laugh A LOT. Surprised I liked this film so much, given I didn't have high hopes for it. In terms of content 6/10 but for entertainment and overall enjoyment 7/10 - would see it again.
