    I loved this movie! I love Josh Hartnett beyond words, and this movie made me just ache inside because not only can I not have him, but either could his co-star Shannon. And the suspense and romance were just so pleasing, when it came time to breaking the rules that he made for himself- ahh, it was so sweet.

    Josh Hartnett is such a talented actor and he has good chemistry w/Shannyn Sossamon, she is so down to earth. I loved it. I laughed through the whole thing.

    Funny, enjoyable, light-hearted movie. If you go to movies for entertainment and laughs, you'll enjoy it. If you go for reality, you may be disappointed. Pleasantly surprised.

    I thought the movie was great and the only reason some idiots gave harsh reviews is because they wish their celibacy could be by choice.

    It was a very nice and enjoyable movie! If somebody expects that this story will happen in reality- one is poor!

    This movie was not funny at all! It was completely idiotic, and made both women and men seem stupid and shallow. Nothing redeeming at all about this poor excuse for a comedy.

    This movie is very superficial and not at all funny. It was a waste of my time and money.

    Boring . . . not funny. There's even a rape scene that for some reason isn't acknowledged as rape. "American Pie" is funny compared to this movie.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I liked it due to its pleasure from a sex comedy and has a fantastic romantic story between the two main characters but in the end, it's not so much of a comedy after you know who rapes Josh Hartnett. Expand

  1. Sets out to demonstrate that life is about more than having sex. Inadvertently -- I think -- it ends up showing us just the opposite. As if we didn't already know.
  2. 30
    The sensibility of the movie is naggingly adolescent -- less erotic than squeamish and giggly. [11 Mar 2002, p. 92]
  3. It's very funny, terrifically lively and, considering how awful it might have been, surprisingly tender in its portrait of a young guy who learns sensitivity the hard way.
