Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Pluskylang Great Film overall
Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
moonspinner55 David Packer plays a young single making his way through the blind date scene in loony Los Angeles, finding many nuts and flakes in the bowl before clean, uncomplicated Bridget Fonda makes his day. A broadly-drawn, low-budget and low-class comedy made up of an unbroken string of stupid lines. Kristy McNichol's brief appearance as a mercurial performance artist lasts about seven minutes, but she's the best thing in the movie. The rest of the picture is pretty vile, with additional cameos by Charles Grodin and Sally Kellerman adding nothing. Crass material not even good enough for your standard TV sitcom. * from ****
dshortt Hardly a great picture, but the guest stars lift it up beyond the usual retread romantic comedy. Charles Grodin has probably 2 minutes of screen time and yet manages to create a complete character out of a few lines. Sally Kellerman and David Leisure are also good. Other minor characters are well-cast. I hate to admit it, but I liked this one.
ionov Nice movie, lots of fun, one you'd want to re-see every 5 yrs.Easy and witty.Bridget Fonda plays fine and all the cast are really convincing in a funny situations that are in there in plenty....
culwin I think the title is trying to explain why this film ddrrrraaaags along. It's like swimming in molasses. Lots of dialogue here but none of it of any value. I challenge anyone to sit through this entire movie in one sitting without falling asleep or going mad. But then one should expect no less from the co-writer of "Three for the Road", that movie was no winner either. I'm sure this movie looked good to Bridget Fonda on paper, it just should have stayed there.
