Good movie but grossly overrated

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

It was a great pleasure to sit along the shore of north Lake Tahoe and watch the only U.S. festival screening of DAVE BARRY'S GUIDE TO GUYS earlier this year at the Tahoe-Reno Film Festival. The pleasure was enhanced by the constant sound of laughter, snickers, giggles, and yes, some outright guffaws, from the opening scenes to the final credits. This is a good sign when watching a comedy, and the film did not disappoint. Written about guys for women the film captures the intricacies and foibles of being a guy and reveals them for the opposite sex. We predict G2G will become the date movie for anyone in a relationship!

I was sitting about two thirds of the way back, on the right side. Occasionally something happened that made the sound go weird, but I really liked this movie. It wasn't like everything else you see out there, and I give it a lot of credit for that. I liked how they brought the two couples in and out a lot, and I think they could have used them even more. The Dan Marino thing was hilarious, and I liked the bits with the repair guy. And the thing about the fictional baseball player, I always liked running gags like that.It was fun to see a movie that didn't do things the usual way. I get tired of these cookie- cutter formula deals. I'm not saying everything worked, because not all the jokes came off the way they probably wanted them to. But the majority of the scenes were really good.I didn't know a lot about Dave Barry but after this movie I am definitely a fan. I was grinning the whole way through it and laughing out loud more than once.

Last night I watched the world premiere of this movie at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. While it made me chuckle several times, it just didn't seem to be very cohesive. I tended to enjoy the bits set in the modern day versus the silly caveman scenes. Though I am a big fan of John Cleese, his scenes didn't do much for me in this movie. One my favorite bits was Dan Marino explaining proper urinal etiquette. I think that was one of problems, it was more just a collection of bits than a complete movie. Some of the scenes were tied together, but it didn't seem to flow very well. With a $17.50 ticket price for this 72 minute film, I didn't feel I got my money's worth.** (out of 4)

...this is a wretched film. I was at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival and I would have booed or shouted crap at the screen but the director and stars were there. I know that they may be reading this but I do not care--I am a Dave Barry fan and I want to protect fellow fans from seeing this film (I guess you can call it a film). Please Please do not watch it for any reason. Stick with your books--this movie will ruin them. It looks like the pilot episode of a TV show with horrible acting and an awful sound design. I know the budget was small, but a talented writer/director should have received these funds and made a completely different movie.God awful...honestly.
