If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

I did like this movie. It had some good comedy in it that at times was both fun and unique. Yes, obvious comedy, but if done well, some of that is the funniest. The acting was also good with Sarah Jessica Parker, and also, surprise, surprise Craig Ferguson. I have to give Craig credit - even though i recognized him right away - since his acting was really pretty decent. Before this movie I had thought that talk show hosts are not that great in movies since it is a different technique, such as Jay Leno in his movie looking at the camera directly too often -a talk show trait. But Craig did well and played a part well and proved that yeah, some talk show hosts can make the transition.I will say that the jokes seemed to go from quite good to dragging a bit at times, but I still would rate it highly as a light comedy. In other words, at least for people like me, it can be a nice way to spend an evening.

"Life Without Dick" is a romantic/comedy though you'll be hard pressed to find any of either in its vacuous plot. In spite of a good core cast, this to-broadcast-in-a-heartbeat flick is a waste of time not worthy of further commentary. (D-)

A pleasant enough film with a few laughs and an attractive cast. Parker a very good comediane has done much better but this film hasn't very high expectations so it hard to be critical. She plays the live in girl friend of pretentious, buffoonish private detective who is cheating on her and planning to run off. When he makes the announcement she accidently shoots him which works out just fine for Connick, an uninspired hit man who was hired to kill the boyfriend. And so on.

I really enjoyed Life Without Dick. I think it's a refreshing change of pace from the usual Hollywood crap aimed at 15-year-old boys. Finally, a smart comedy. Sarah Jessica Parker is wonderful in the lead role,and David Cross is perfect as the idiot cousin. I highly recommend this movie.
