A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

I believe the movie itself is quite interesting. I stumbled on it by accident on the tv and cannot seem to find it anywhere to watch. It's a kind of movie that one can either like or dislike, it all depends on the viewer's taste in comedy. For instance, this movie is all about comedy, maybe even a bit irony, but it's hidden in all those little lines, fragments that you either see or you don't. I personally liked it greatly and, along with my mom with whom I watched this movie, I laughed my heart out. If one would ask me, I'd say you should definitely watch it, but again I have to warn it is very specific kind of movie and if you don't like a lot of irony in a jokes in a movie, I suggest you pass this one.

I love movies along the lines of Mini's First Time, Gambit, Love and Other Disasters etc… This movie fits in with them well. The characters are both keeping secrets,-her diary, -his job etc. but what makes it really funny is the added elements of her crazy parents and her reactions to everyday annoyances. Definitely loved the ending- very Mr and Mrs Smith in a way.I just wish they had used a slightly better camera for some scenes.This is the first Joey Lawrence movie I have ever seen and he reminds me a bit of Sean Patrick Flannery. His attitude is very humorous and his relationship with Shirly Brener is actually adorable (with lots of stuffed animals). Also the opening song to the movie For All I Care is from the album "Laura Slade Wiggins is Clementine". (The same as the actress Laura Wiggins on the TV show Shameless). It really sets the tone of the movie from the get go.

Found this movie to be entertaining, however, be forewarned, it is an acquired taste. Only those of a particular sense of humor will appreciate it for what it is. This film has a decent story line with quirky comical twists. It is not like most movies you will see. This movie is balanced somewhere between what life is really like and what it could be like. There are mid-serious scenes, but they wear a coat of comedy. This film will seem to slow down at points, but give it a chance if the style and quality of the comedy is not lost on you. As a viewer, I believe this movie functions along the lines of 'what if' and 'why not'. This makes it more enjoyable for the audience, especially if they identify with the more realistic parts of life portrayed. This film delivers satisfaction with comical conclusions for daily life frustrations.

I acquired this movie by accident but I thought a review was in order seeing as I doubt anyone else will bother. The plot is fairly straightforward with some comedic elements borrowed from some of the greats: Bruce Willis and Jack Nicholson come to mind, as hit man and dog hater respectively, and to its credit I did laugh at some of the gags, but don't expect too much. This is a lightweight movie with only one familiar face, John Savage, and to be honest he added nothing, indeed I think it would have been a marginally better movie without him. The rest of the acting is tongue in cheek, unserious, but reasonably consistent in depicting a world inhabited by oddballs. There is little to recommend it, but if you have nothing better to do on a rainy afternoon . . . ? To its credit I only began to get bored near the end, and then the plot twisted to resolve itself and it finished. About 5/10 but judge for yourself?
