I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Truly Dreadful Film

Lack of good storyline.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Watched this on cable and found it a good relevant comedy with laugh out loud moments and some touching parts. This is a realistic and witty look at divorce from the man's point of view. The dialog isn't dated at all even though it's about 16 years old and it's better and more meaningful than some of the silly comedies they make nowadays. Good screenplay that avoids clichés. Even though there are quite a few characters: ex wives, girlfriends and kids it isn't confusing.The cast is likable Paul Reiser, Matthew Modine and Randy Quaid. Randy shows a lot more range than he usually gets to show. A young Eliza Dushku plays one of the daughters. Amy Brenneman plays one of the ex wives. Watch out for a brief shot of Jack Black.Overall a pleasant feel good comedy about divorce. Watch it.

Divorce is a pervasive fact of life in our society. The three men at the center of the story, Vic, Donny, and Dave, have recently been divorced. It appears that all three have gone through friendly separations, as in all three cases, children are involved. Since the kids are under the mother's custody, the fathers have the right to get them for week-end visits.All three friends seem somewhat adjusted to their new realities. Vic, looks as the most grounded man of the trio. Donny, is the saddest case, and Dave, who is a wishy washy man, is trying his hand at a new relationship with a much younger woman. The wives, on the other hand, have moved on with their lives. The three women appear to have no problems with their new status.The exchange of children occurs in a suburban McDonald's, a neutral territory. This is a type of "brand placing" that Hollywood films love to show. Fast food, alas, stands for an allegory of what's missing with most marriages these days when most families don't even share a meal together. There is also the talk radio personality who is in the air taking calls from divorced people and advising them what to do, yet, he doesn't even have a clue about what he is talking about; after all, he's been married five times! The acting is adequate. The best thing in the film is Randy Quaid, who as Vic, makes the most of his role. Janeane Garofalo appears as a date from hell, in a funny sequence. The ensemble cast does fine work under Sam Weisman's direction.The sad fact of this story is that all these children, we see in the film, will probably go through divorces in their own lives.

Not a horrible film, but no real moments of genius either. Sickeningly domestic, saccharine Hollywood puppet-show that might be entertaining to goody-two-shooed fluoride-poisoned Homonis-Domesticus "Outraged Fathers" and "Mad-Mothers" but, to the rest of us, will reek of suburban-ticket-sale-pandering. Still, the script was decent, and the acting was fairly solid. It was better than most movies of it's kind and I must shamefully confess to having laughed a few times. Overall, it was a good movie with a good script and good actors; it's just a shame it was centered about such pedestrian and urbane material.

This is great film about the lives of three divorced men and their ex-wives and kids.Eliza Dushku (Faith in Buffy the Vampire Slayer) who is younger here and plays Emma the daughter of Donny in one of her best movies. Recommended for Eliza Dushku and Buffy fans. 8/10
