kathyatsf Worth watching! It is funny, romantic, and a really good script - New York city's dating game and on location on the streets of NY, great fashion by actresses and actors and Ed Burns 's words and acting are just super! I love the documentary style and narration, 6 people in the city in these interlocking relationships, very captivating, the background photography were great with natural lights in the city, and of course the soundtracks fit the movie very well. I watched this movie many times, the reasons are that the story is very interesting. The interplay between different characters in their witty ways, and also the great acting by all the actors in this movies, of course, the handsome Ed Burns, the pretty Bittany Murphy are the lead actors. In one scene, when Ed is having dinner with his date in the movie with the background music of lush life - such a romantic Jazz tune!

Zim_Babwe If you liked "Sex And The City", "She's The One", "The Real Blonde" and "Your Friends And Neighbours", you will like it. Good thing is, they are not all Gucci, Dior or Dolce-Gabbana, nor they are trailer-trash immigrants, rather they are a bunch of confused New Yorkers from different social levels who simply tell their stories to the camera. This is a more or less general picture of Americans, they get fat, get bald, cheat around, get busted, and in the end seem to be some sentimental hypocrite patriots. They break up, they make up. They desperately try to figure out the fine line between lust and logic. They identify themselves with dogs and bitches. You would come to pity them. One of the characters tends to think that getting laid is a huge issue for him where the actual huge issue with him was his knowledge in Geography. He needs to get back to school rather than getting back to his ex-wife. If one rarely travels overseas and think that moving across country is a big life-time deal, their mind will also end up like this, and rest of the world outside USA wouldn't even exist for them. Stanley Tucci, Dennis Farina and Brittany Murphy's performance are quite good, though Brittany Murphy's hair always annoys me. Edward Burns and Heather Graham were not bad. Realistic plot has been combined with a special scene-plan in this movie. Looks like a "hopping-shots" technique that suits the theme and mood of the movie. 7 out of 10.

Ermengarde By the way, the other review here is very good, especially as an overview of the structure of the film, however, there seems to be a typo--It's BEN who was married to gorgeous Maria, and was kicked out after cheating on her, not Tommy.The film seemed a little slow in the beginning to me. I found the character of Tommy sweet, but not particularly compelling, so I was kind of getting impatient with the pace. However, as the rest of the characters were introduced, I soon became engrossed in the stories, and I LOVED the way all the story lines became more and more entangled with each other.My favorite character, easily, was Ben, played by the ever- interesting David Krumholtz (now on CBS's Numb3rs!) and his scenes with Brittany Murphy were surprisingly touching and funny.Stanley Tucci was a riot, though, as the most selfish little shmuck ever.All in all, I really liked it and would recommend it

MLDinTN I thought this documentary style movie was OK, but coming from a small town I really can't relate to big city life. But, I thought the story was OK and ironic sometimes. The movie follows several people as they talk about their relationships. None of them are in happy ones. And a lot of it is about cheating and one night stands. None of the actors really stand out.FINAL VERDICT: It had nothing that would make me want to see this again. It isn't bad, it just isn't anything special. Maybe if you live this type of lifestyle in a big city, you may want to check this movie out.
