Far too many have found the film to be plodding and heavy on dialogue. But its those aspects that make it first rate. One might try to deny it, but NSW is portrayed close to how life really is for most of us; seemingly unsatisfying, yet in the end, rewarding. Throw in the fetching and talented Hope Davis, you have a five-star film. Victor Argo, Robert Klein and Philip Seymour Hoffman shine in supporting roles. Watch it with an open mind!

That is the question this film makes you ponder. great dialogue and a good ending make this a worthwhile film. although this is not for the average hollywood action movie goer.

I would definitely put this movie in the "chick flick" category. It has some depth of introspection but not excessive. It has to do with a young woman who is finding her way from a failed relationship into finding what she really wants. Her mother gives her a push to "find" it for her, with the result giving her the opportunity to figure out what she doesn't want and why. Too many "coincidences" for real life, but still overall a nice movie. Guys probably won't enjoy it.

Warning: this movie was shot entirely with a Shaky-Cam. Unless you can tolerate having the camera bob & weave constantly just as in the most amateurish of home movies, avoid this like the plague.

This movie just didn't work for me at any level.

This isn't just slow, it doesn't go anywhere, honestly, the description of this movie actually takes place in the final 7-minutes. And I mean it when I say, nothing happens, nor does it ever happen. ...

There isn't anything even remotely entertaining about this movie. Well, maybe the fish the plumber steals.At least the fish had more personality and acting ability than any of the people who participated in this movie.

One of my favorite romance comedy, feels so real,it made me smiles (and laugh) the whole movie. And as for James O, too bad you can't look at the bright side...plus for Dee Dee D, ask Carlos Mencia ...
