Andy Richter, Bryan Cranston, Helen Slater

A sweet and sly comedy, Seeing Other People centers around Ed (Jay Mohr, Jerry Maguire) and Alice (Julianne Nicholson, Ally McBeal), who have an idyllic relationship--so stable ...( read more  read more... )that, only a few months before their wedding, Alice worries that she's missed out; she's only slept with two other men before Ed. Anxious about her lack of experience, she proposes that they start seeing other people so she can have cheap, meaningless sex. But after a promising start that revitalizes their relationship, this arrangement starts spinning off in dangerous directions. Attention to psychological detail--as well as a great cast, a well-written script, and smooth, underplayed direction--keep Seeing Other People from slipping into the usual clichés of broad sex comedies. The result is clever, genuine, and enjoyable. Also featuring Andy Richter (New York Minute), Lauren Graham (The Gilmore Girls), Josh Charles (S.W.A.T.), and Helen Slater (Supergirl). --Bret Fetzer

    Intense, funny, witty, and more than anything, social comedy on the ways of adult dating and it's results-be it good or bad. The film goes the way films should go these days, showing that guys are sensitive at heart and have morals. Most of the male characters are the moralistic,...( read more) straight forward eyes, while the woman are the fresh faced street prowlers who will stop at nothing to get pleasure. Guys will be appreciative of the message made for guys with self respect, however it is easy to assume that most males who DO see this film will use it's message of male sensitivity cover up any flaw or trait that a female might find offending. Still, the writing formula uses this as a tool to pave the way for it's male leads, particularly those of Mohr, Richter, and finding the director in a cameo as a sales man!

    The females are by far the most promiscuous as they speak of nothing but pleasure and what it would be like to... with someone else. They have amicable traits though, even though they are covered by the image of sex driven kittens. Very funny stuff.
    Very intelligent and needed in this time of clumsy, condescending comedy, while containing your usual variety of comedic, sexual, and frustrated characters(especially Charles as a sexually frustrated sex fiend...very funny) who even they seem to get the right feel to this heart felt commentary. Anywho, this film is a no hits miss, give it all you got romantic sex farce, displayed very maturely and aesthetically.

    A very entertaining movie. There are a lot of great moments in the movie that really have a lot of humor. The cast of the movie helps make it awesome.

There are so many different pairings to keep track of that the movie loses focus and becomes a juggling act. full review
