Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Pluskylang Great Film overall

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

verbusen I missed the first quarter of this which I guess has a lot of Broderick working in the gourmet store, but I still really enjoyed this film. Romantic comedies are to take a date to or watch with a date, which I didn't do because I was alone at work, but a show I would normally pass when channel surfing caught my eye when I saw Broderick because I think he's great. This has a couple of really laugh out loud funny scenes but the one I really cracked up on was when the lead chick sleeps with the wrong guy by mistake. It wasn't that she had the wrong guy so much but the way the guy acted on the date, I mean to me it was hilarious! Than afterward, "can you hold me?" , he replies "What I thought we were done!" you have to see it and understand what I'm talking about but the sex involved set a speed record, just really funny and it didn't even have Broderick in it. The scenes he are in are all pretty good, he plays a great loser. He's not as much a loser as he was in Election or Cable Guy but still a great character. If your a Broderick fan this is worth watching, or if your a guy looking for a romantic comedy you could watch all the way through without cringing this one is worth seeing. I'm not sure, as others have said, its very romantic but I did find it funny. 7 of 10.

ommmmaggie I rented this on a whim, when it first came to video stores in late '93 or early '94. I was so charmed by it that I went back and bought it the next weekend, since I knew it would be cheaper than renting it as much as I knew I would. I watch it all the time, to pick up my spirits after a bad break-up, to commiserate with Sam when the world of love has left me cold, or when I feel a strong need to laugh at French performance artists. I can't recommend it highly enough as a great date movie, great for watching with a group of friends, and maybe best ingested when alone. I LOVE THIS MOVIE. If anyone knows of a soundtrack for it, please post a message.

stills-6 Great performances highlight this small story, which has a great hook and some forgivable flaws. The main themes of communication and isolation are given time to flesh themselves out in three separate stories that center around a shared apartment. I like the pacing in this film, it's slow enough to wrap itself around the story, but not so slow as to drag.The three main female characters are all good, especially Tripplehorn as Pastel, the avant-garde artist and pseudo girlfriend of Broderick. I've never seen her do any better with a character. Broderick has a curious role to play as a man who is tolerant of others up to a point (like his view of Sciorra's illogical behavior), but still has the serenity to offer marital advice to a woman who has just put him through a frustrating case of coitus interruptus. Sciorra's character is more problematic - she has a definite fear-aggression streak that gets tempered somewhat by the end, but there's also a good deal of "tough chick" bravado in her performance that makes it interesting.I wasn't completely convinced by all of the transformations in the final ten minutes of the movie, but it ties things up neatly enough so you don't feel cheated and leaves enough room for the characters to grow further after the final shot.

FilmChic-3 A tad different from most romance comedies. This film is light, yet contains a slightly dark edge with the subject matter.
