    Really great movie about loving too many too fast..and quite funny as well.

    I enjoyed many parts of this film (3.5=between good and really good), but on the whole it never made it to 4 stars (4=really good). Marguerite Moreau gave a great, human performance as the lead (might I also add that she is stunningly beautiful without reaching for that "star in ...( read more)a can" quality). The film struggled through trying to be so "real" that it overshot the mark and became somewhat of a parody of itself. Where it sought to portray what one girl goes through in the realm of rejection and relations it overstates the point by making the watcher believe that all men are jerks. It then goes even further to show that, in general, all people are jerks...(hmmm...maybe a little more on the mark than I thought.) Playing too much on overdone or incorrect stereotypes also weighs this movie down a bit [The yoga instructor/acupuncturist next door smokes pot (inaccurate/hackneyed movie stereotype), the gay characters waffle in their sexuality (see previous example)] In addition, outcomes are generally easy to spot. Also, Naveen Andrews playing the initial love interest (John) was almost painful to watch as his performance was SO lackluster. All of this being said...it did come across as very human and totally approachable which I believe was what this movie was going for. Furthering this struggle towards being "real," the movie goes with a very sparse soundtrack. That is hard to pull off. A good watch. Rent it when you can.

    Undenniable charming movie, funny and romantic at the same time, without being cheesy.

    Has a good narrative, average-to-good performances, and a very good story. A lot of story twists, some really unexpected, but all of em help to make the story richer.

    I thought the plot was kinda weak, a lot of movie for little benefit (if that makes sense). It was ok, nothing special, nothing memorable. Definitely fits into the chick flick category, although romantic comedy is a stretch - can't remember any funny parts! It's about a girl w...( read more)ho has huge problems finding a nice guy that wants a relationship, and gets hurt many times along the way. I would recommend only if you like this genre.

    I don't know why I watch these.. Movies about people who go through relationship after relationship but can't find a good one.. I haven't had a relationship in over 7 years.. it's hard to feel their pain..

    However, the movie had some redeeming qualities.. Acting was good...( read more), the story was good.. and was very endearing.. it came VERY close to the line that would have made it cheesy.. but managed to pull back..

    It's a great movie and it has a very good soundtrack.

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

Weinstock's screenplay takes too many shortcuts, never letting the characters emerge as people in their own right, rather than as a collection of carefully assigned character traits. full review
