Brilliant and touching

brilliant actors, brilliant editing

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

A predictable formula, poorly acted, cliché dialog that no one would say in real life. At many times, you can't understand what the actors are saying, and frequently the music covers what they're saying. I kept waiting for things to pick up, but the humor declined, until the final minute, which I give the directors a lot of credit for. To follow such a bad script and premise so long, and then throw the Hollywood ending in the toilet is brave. I just don't think very many viewers will wait that long for such a small payoff. Teenagers hoping for a lot of skin probably won't wait 'til the end for that payoff, either. Two chuckles and a pretty girl don't make up for everything that's wrong with this movie. If it were someone's student project, I'd cut them some slack. Kind of like a porno without the sex scenes. The cinematography at times literally looks like a porno.

I think this movie lies somewhere in the middle between most movie in the genre. It wants to be a funny, romantic movie yet the topic that it took is something where you expect to see naked girl most of the times. Guess what, you won't see skin (until the end & it's boobs without faces). Unfortunately it's not that funny either and you definitely can't ask a girl to see through this movie expecting her to feel the movie as the romance factor is about 0.One girl could change you, maybe. The acting however is NOT good at all. I just don't believe that Miles is such a Don Juan, his best friend Cleaver acts like some punk ass, Ben is such a nerd and X is a mechanic. X do looks cute though. The pace however is just too slow and change of event is too fast. Verdict, 5 out of 10. It has a promising beginning then slowed down to I almost quit it. Took me 2 days to finish the movie.

OK for starters this movie absolutely shocked me. The biggest load of crap I have ever seen! They guys in this movie were the most disgusting, rudest, a**holes. I felt like strangling Cleaver and Miles because they acted like complete horny idiots. This movie makes girls look like cheap sl*ts who just want to have sex with any random guy that happens to step foot on their doorstep. But there is one thing that made me give this movie an extra rating point and that was the ending. I am so glad that Gabrielle got Miles back. Just when I thought that Gabrielle gave in to Miles, there was another twist. Good on her for that. Bout time someone taught Miles a lesson. What a jerk he turned out to be! This is definitely one for the guys. I know most girls would be disgusted with it.

This film has a great premise for a movie, if you like the kind of movies with gratuitous nudity, outrageous shocking moments, and hilariously uncomfortable situations and misunderstandings. There was one shot of nudity at the very end from a woman who had absolutely nothing to do with the film. There were no shocking moments. And the uncomfortable situations and misunderstandings were unrealistic and often hard to sit through. I did not laugh once. And I am not exaggerating. The many attempts at comedy failed miserably mainly because you could almost see the punchline before the joke was told. I didn't care one bit about the characters. And it seemed that they were all missing something. The main character, Miles, was supposed to be charming had no charm. Cleaver, who was supposed to be a Stifler-like character(American Pie), was just plain annoying. The original Stifler, you just love to hate him but can't hate him for long because he's pretty damn funny. When Cleaver's character attempts to copy him in this film, you just hate to know him and want to punch him in the face. And then there's Ben, the quiet roommate who is somewhat of the moral compass in the film. But he has probably never had a girl in his life, and he decides to tattle-tale on Miles late in the film, in the hopes that he will win the girl that Miles is supposedly "changing his ways" for. After Ben snitched on Miles, there was so little tension in the room I felt they were about to have a slap fight. And even THAT didn't happen.And then there's the soundtrack. Normally I wouldn't comment on such a thing but it was distracting and pathetic. There was hardly any musical score to the movie, instead there were poorly written and poorly produced songs that were so completely blatant about what was happening in that particular scene or montage. If Tenacious D was retarded, somehow had retarded children, then those children formed a band, it would be the guys who made this soundtrack.So here's what you should do instead for 84 minutes. Listen to your favorite comedy CD that you've heard a million times while you surf the web for the most softcore porn you can find. You'll at least have somewhat of a smile on your face from a joke you've already heard, and you won't have to wait til the 83rd minute to see some nudity. If you watch the movie anyway, please comment on here and if you can honestly say that you didn't waste your time, then please don't procreate.
