An enjoyable little trifle, and you can't help but think Hedden wasn't aiming for much more.

Most of the performances feel both spontaneous and lived-in, particularly Scott's exasperated romantic.

Not good. Boring story, barely managed to keep my attention. Typical straight to video b-grade movie. To be honest, I was only watching for Michael Pitt's bit part in it though. LOL. One and a half stars for that half minute - half a star for the rest of the movie!

the only romantic comedy I like, and really only for one line, but it makes me laugh every single time

Not a particularly interesting story, the acting is okay but you don't get attached to any of the characters.
