Critic Reviews
-
, Variety
Despite valiant efforts by a game Kevin Pollak to liven up this tired romantic comedy, only the patient should appreciate the gross humor and sophomoric plot.
-
Janet Maslin, New York Times
When a battle-of-the-sexes comedy has one combatant complaining that the other never caps the toothpaste tube, there's bound to be a shortage of new thinking.
-
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
This may not be the most slickly-produced or original motion picture of the year, but it has a great deal more bite than most films that place themselves in the same genre.
-
Hal Hinson, Washington Post
Everything in this feebly written (by screenwriter Noah Stern), blandly staged (by director Matthew Meshekoff) film seems to have been recycled from some earlier movie or television show.
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
This is the kind of movie where nothing that is done, said, thought or performed bears any relationship to anyone you have ever met.
