    immensely forgettable charisma effort wherein all trains of thoughts go towards the lead fem baggin' the "man o' her dreams", pure and unaldulterated cosmo b.s...everyone's cute, everyone's witty, everyone's...forgettable. can you say "chick flick". you betcha.

    I seem to recall liking this movie when I first saw it, but I watched it again and it seems so disjointed. The title card gags get jettisoned halfway through the movie, and the little surreal intercuts get lost as well. All these characters seem very immature (despite constant re...( read more)assertion to the contrary) and the dialogue seems overly scripted. So much so that you're really taken out of the movie. Too much time is spent on making this movie momentarily entertaining that it suffers as a whole. There were good ideas here, but they were not put to very good use.

    this is one of those films that no matter how many time I have seen it, I will watch it whenever it is on. wonderfully cheesy and oh-so corny... I love it! ♥

Critic Reviews


March 30, 2001
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

A romantic comedy with insights into sex and relationships that are old and obvious. full review

March 30, 2001
A.O. Scott, The New York Times

Elizabeth Chandler's script has, by my count, exactly one sort-of-funny line and not a single scene whose comic possibilities are successfully exploited. full review

March 30, 2001
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

A pretty lame premise. full review

March 29, 2001
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

Someone Like You hammers so hard at its cutesy premise of animal-mating-ritual theories that it fairly numbs you. full review

March 22, 2001
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

An appealingly quirky love story. full review
