A good romantic comedy

Rating: Null/10 (11 November 2000)

The movie is a good comedy and an excellent date flick. I enjoyed the oddball type chemistry between Stiller and Diaz. The relationship works for me and no way tacky in any manner. I would have expected something worse but the story is good and dare I say heart warming. Some of the wacky scenes and jokes were pushing it a tad too far, e.g. the scene Matt Dillon spies Diaz removing her top and accidentally sees the neighbor. That can trigger endless nightmares.
The jokes were funny, provided a few laughs, and the twists in the end were interesting. I did find it odd though that Mary / Cameron Diaz loves a man who travels alot, doesn't like to settle down in one place, yet her work lies in one place and it seems her work is equally as important. She enjoys helping the mentally challenged, why would she say she liked travelling around? Anyway, besides that, this movie is an excellent film to watch on dates.
