Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

I've one of the few people who've actually seen this film. I remember seeing this on HBO, back in the day. I'm sure you've probably never heard of it, but it has Courteney Cox & Kevin Pollak. The Opposite Sex and How to Live with Them (1992 or 1993? There seems to be confusion on when this movie actually came out, or maybe 1993 is when it was released on video?).It's a good drama/relationship/comedy flick. Besides, I'm a huge Courteney Cox & Kevin Pollak fan. :) Few films have ever duplicated the awesome formula for an enjoyable romantic comedy.I collect rare movies. I want this movie on DVD, but no site carries it. I tried Netflix already. I had to buy it on VHS on Amazon. All excited to see the movie, I should have checked Hulu first. :( It seems like Hulu has a lot of things that Netflix doesn't. That's an awesome bonus of subscribing to Hulu! >:-) How I add this movie on Hulu to my favorites or instant queue list? I have no idea. I guess I'll have to figure it out, I was never much a big Hulu movie watcher. But based on this recent experience, I guess I'll have to change that. :)

Unfortunately sometimes a movie like this comes along, and is very much overlooked by the mainstream. I love it more and more each time I see it. The writing is hysterical and the deliverance by each and every one of the characters is perfect. Kevin Pollack is probably the best character, and most suited for the role in the film.At the beginning of the movie, Courtney Cox meets the man she will eventually end up with in the film (I assure, I haven't ruined anything for you). From beginning to end you hear the opposite sex's view points on love, sex, friends, parents, marriage, and many more topics.An adult film, yes, but witty, clever and full of life, is how I would categorize it. It's very enjoyable!

OK, so this movie is no "Ben-Hur," but the worst movie ever? I've heard that the new Jennifer Lopez movie "Gigli" may be worthy of that title, but it isn't fair to put "Opposite Sex..." in that same league. Several of my friends and I thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie. I personally think Kevin Pollack is hilarious in his role and there are more than a few situations where you can't help but laugh out loud. Granted, if you're waiting to see a film with wide critical acclaim and great acting, then "Opposite Sex..." probably isn't for you. But if you just want to enjoy yourself and laugh, you should give this movie a chance.

You know a movie cannot be too good when the headliner is Ayre Gross. Best known for his role as 'Gordo' in the stinker "Soul Man", Gross doesn't impress here. Playing David Crowne opposite a rare pre-Friends cinematic appearance by Courtney Cox, Gross painstakingly delivers his dialogue to the audience. Kevin Pollock and Julie Brown are simply not funny.(this begs the question: when is Julie Brown ever funny.) The characters constantly pan to the camera as if to have conversations with the audience explaining their predicaments. Pollock's character, Eli, is a rote "Ladies' Man" while Julie Brown plays 'Zoe' thus accentuating her quirkiness. I ask myself was Judy Tenuta too busy during this shoot? Zoe's role in the movie is the zany-yet-supportive friend. Cheesy lines and generalisations about the Boston singles scene abound. Women are objects and men do not fare much better. The movie attempts to analyse all the phases of a relationship, and barely achieves its goal; I would recommend you turn the opposite way when you see "The Opposite Sex" on tv or the video rack.
