How to fall asleep in 10 minutes...

Rating: 3/10 (3 April 2003)

I'm not a big fan of chick-flicks, but since this was billed as a comedy I decided to watch. Big mistake. My concepts of comedy obviously differ from the scriptwriters by a big margin. If you like cringing in your seat at truly awful dialogue and scenes then I suppose it is funny. But I just found it boring and tedious.
The basic premise that a person would go out with someone only to try and lose them in short order was highly obnoxious. (Yes I know, its a comedy, but I still found this objectionable in the extreme.)
In the end, I only watched the first half. I couldn't stomach any more. It was just too stomach-churningly dire. Plus, the whole story would have been better and more believable with younger (i.e. teen) actors.
I guess this is a "you either love it or hate it" movie. No prizes for guessing which camp I'm in.
