During a cross-country trip, Joe (Eric Stoltz) proposes to his girlfriend Sarah (Meg Tilly) with his best friend Frank (Craig Sheffer) looking on. At the couple's rehearsal dinner, Sarah confesses privately to Frank her attraction to him, but what she doesn't know is that Frank is in love with her. They share a kiss, which leads to an argument between Joe and Frank at their next meeting, a weekly poker game with their buddies. At a video shoot, a dinner party, another poker game, and a few more celebrations, the friendship between the three of them is challenged by the nascent attraction between Frank and Sarah. In the meantime, the all-male poker game is invaded by Athena (Parker Posey) and Lauren (Joey Lauren Adams), and a party guest, Sid (Quentin Tarantino), delivers a memorable treatise on the homoerotic subtext of Top Gun (1986). ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Clint Morris, Moviehole
Worth it, if only for Quentin Tarantino's hilarious cameo
-
Dan Fienberg, Zap2it.com
A lesser entry in the '90s genre of talky, Tarantino-and-Linklater-inspired Gen-X babblefests
-
Jeffrey M. Anderson, San Francisco Examiner
Notable only for its Quentin Tarantino Top Gun monologue.
-
Rob Gonsalves, eFilmCritic.com
Sometimes funny, sometimes painful, but most often solipsistic.
