August 6, 2011The story about the one that got away and the one she never saw coming.
Fun good movie about adult relationships that easy come by and easy go. You could learn a few things about this movie and apply them to your life, the most logic things in life are probably the one's you sho... read more -
March 5, 2011This romantic "cheesy" comedy stars Ashley Judd as Jane Goodale, a talent booker for TV talk show host Diane Roberts (Ellen Barkin). Jane is a woman who is in and out of relationships and not very happy about it,this wacky story makes you not take anything too seriously.

January 15, 2011I think it's a fun movie. Sure, it's a throwaway romantic comedy aside from the megaton star Hugh Jackman. He is showcased in this movie as a complete ladies man who likes leftover chinese food occasionally. Ashley Judd is always pretty dependable as an actress and this is no dif... read more

October 4, 2009This movie strikes a chord in the heart of every woman, but not romantically. I remember my first annoying playboy co-worker and he was a great deal like Eddie. I watched this movie with a wry smile on my face, thinking about how wonderful it would be to have him back in the offi... read more

September 2, 2009I only caught the last ¾ of this movie, so this may not be fair review. It was a fun one to watch, and the acting was great. The story left something to be desired towards the end, but was redeemed slightly by watching the alternate ending, which answered a lot of questions we ... read more

January 22, 2009immensely forgettable charisma effort wherein all trains of thoughts go towards the lead fem baggin' the "man o' her dreams", pure and unaldulterated cosmo b.s...everyone's cute, everyone's witty, everyone's...forgettable. can you say "chick flick". you betcha.

June 24, 2008I seem to recall liking this movie when I first saw it, but I watched it again and it seems so disjointed. The title card gags get jettisoned halfway through the movie, and the little surreal intercuts get lost as well. All these characters seem very immature (despite constant re... read more

August 28, 2007An okay movie if your looking for strictly romance. If you can get apast the fact that the comedy really is not that funny, and that Ashley Judd plays an extremly annoying/not well, role, then it's worth watching a time or two.

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
A romantic comedy with insights into sex and relationships that are old and obvious. Full Review

Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
Refreshingly funny.

John Anderson, Newsday
All over the place, and seems to have been made by embittered married people. Full Review

A.O. Scott, New York Times
Elizabeth Chandler's script has, by my count, exactly one sort-of-funny line and not a single scene whose comic possibilities are successfully exploited. Full Review

Jonathan Foreman, New York Post
Bland, predictable, sitcom-esque.

Susan Stark, Detroit News
The smartest cinematic take on he/she in memory. Full Review
