It's not as good as everyone says.

Rating: 3/10 (5 October 1998)

If you've seen the preview, you've seen the funny parts of this movie. The dog scene (you've seen 3/4 of it in the preview) is a laugh out loud riot (of course, you probably already laughed at the preview). The rest of the movie is slow. Very slow. I don't always laugh at every joke in movies, but at least I recognize when something is supposed to be funny. This movie goes painfully long in places without even trying to be funny. If you have to see what everyone is talking about, wait for video, or use free coupons.
I've heard from others that if you liked "Chasing Amy" you would like this movie. That may be true, I didn't like that movie much either. (But more than this one.)
