August 25, 2008Don't let the title fool you because this film's for guys and girls.

November 20, 2007i missed the first part of this because it was on tv, but i saw most of it and enough to know that it wasnt very good. jason lee is always funny but he starred along side two of the more annoying actresses in hollywood.

November 26, 2006Surprising comedy and good choice for Julia Stiles because she's so beautiful than Selma Blair to give a better match for Jason Lee.

The three move through a faded deck of clichés ... with a convincing impression of having fun, helped along by a snazzy '60s-'70s soundtrack and bit-part fillips. Full Review

Here's a rule of thumb: If the coincidences in your movie have longer odds than Carrot Top perfecting cold fusion, you might be straining the old believability factor.

James Berardinelli, ReelViews
It takes a truly awful motion picture to nullify the considerable appeal of Lee, Stiles, and Blair, but A Guy Thing has what it takes. Full Review

Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
[Tries] desperately to lower the bar for scatological gags, rank sexual humor and cheap physical shots. Full Review

Peter Howell, Toronto Star
A bale of romantic fluff that is a lot funnier than it has any right to be. Full Review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
What a childish, empty effort, and what a dispiriting thing to watch, or think back on watching. Full Review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
Stumbles along laboriously, its jokes following one after another in a sloppy, flat-footed walk. Full Review

Joe Baltake, Sacramento Bee
A Guy Thing is only a slight improvement over Down to You but is actually more of a disappointment, considering that in the ensuing years, its young stars have moved on to better things. Full Review

Gene Seymour, Newsday
It's one of those movies whose sole conviction is that no gag is so tired or gross or easily grasped the first time that it cannot be run into the ground. Full Review
