Overrated.

Rating: 6/10 (8 June 2002)

I did not find this movie funny in the least. None of the characters are particularly likeable, including the main character himself. The movie pretty much just flounders around while we get to hear John Cusack's character lament about his crappy love-life. By the way, I would LOVE to have had his love-life. He basically goes out and dates beautiful women. Whats the big deal? All that whining is so annoying. I just don't get why this movie receives such high praise. Aside from Jack Black, this movie is boring. Boring story, boring characters, boring acting and boring setting. For a truly funny and original John Cusack romance movie, try "Say Anything" or "Better off Dead"

5/10
