Critic Reviews

  • Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader

    The cast is so charming and assured that it puts across most of this with a reasonable amount of conviction.

  • Rick Groen, Globe and Mail

    This is less a movie than a casting call -- just round up a crowd of pretty young faces, fresh yet still familiar, and call it a job well done.

  • Steve Murray, Atlanta Journal-Constitution

    You might wish for some of the grosser excesses of Road Trip or American Pie just to stay awake.

  • Jay Carr, Boston Globe

    A screenful of nonstop charm and credibility.

  • Joe Baltake, Sacramento Bee

    Annoying.

    Generally awful movie, but 2 saviours: the dance scene and Jason Biggs are incredible. Predictably laughable to see Freddie Prinze Jr's transformation to hottie, and Claire Forlani is HAWT. She's a prettier version of Angelina Jolie. Also funny that they try to fool us… More

    Awe come on everyone! This was cute. How can anything with Freddie in it be bad? Cute romantic comedy. Jason Biggs was pretty funny in this, which really added to it. Maybe not their best work, but I enjoyed it.

    This has got to be one of the most cheesy movies from the 00s. You have the ultimate teen nerd and the ultimate teen leading man thrown together with the roles reversed. A blue haired Jason Biggs is not necessarily something I asked to see, but it was a pleasant surprise none the… More

    Not a bad comedy-romantic with Freddie Prinze Jr. and Claire Forlani as college students whose blossoming friendship nurses them through a series of romantic disappointments. Will they ever see that they're made for each other? Three guesses. The overfamiliar script is redeemed… More
