8 on a scale of 10

Rating: 8/10 (15 April 2000)

This movie had a lot going for it. I didn't dislike very much. I also didn't overly like a great deal. That means I rate it in the upper 7's, but rounded to an 8.
John Cusak was quite good. I loved his two employees - especially the arrogant one. They were great and added tremendously to the story.
The ex-girlfriends were all well played. Who wouldn't want to see Zeta Jones even if it was a relatively small part?
Overall, it is a romantic comedy. Possibly a little harder edged than some and a little less on the feel-good romance angle that characterizes the genre, but ultimately, that is what it was. Usually, boy meets girl and they fall in love and live happily ever after. In this, boy loses girl and attempts to recapture her heart.
