Summary: Riot Grrrls
Review: This flick had my jaw on the floor within the first 10 mins. The casting was outstanding considering the dialogue and scenes involved. Laugh out loud fun!

The Special Features rock! The movie comentary features dirctor and cast. Jason Bateman says little. Selma says a lot. The chatter during On The Highway/Going Down is the stuff that dreams are made of. There's a featurette on the writer, Nancy Pimetal. Funny stuff!

Fave scenes: Dancing Fools, Touchy Feely, On The Highway/Going Down. All this AND Parker Posie...a must own!

Summary: If you liked "There's Something About Mary..."
Review: If you liked "There's Something About Mary," then you will appreciate this movie. It was very unexpected, though I did laugh at some parts. Other parts, where they're singing in the restaurant, I did not understand where that came from. Let's just say it was a very interesting, yet predictable movie.

Summary: Fantastic film! Well worth watching with the girls!!
Review: I can not believe how seriously you guys take writing these reviews, discussing no audience connections and it being too american pie for you! It's meant to be a film! you know, some light hearted fun/entertainment! I can not believe you are slating a brilliant film, you take things way to seriously. I think this was an absolutely fantastic film and right up my street, if your a young single female who's had guys troubles in the past and tend to stick with your girlys, trust me this film is for you, you will totally relate to it and if you are not in stitches by the end of it i suggest a sense of humour transplant. At the same time if your a guy thats been screwed over by a women, this will offer you an insight into womens heads. I wasn't sure what we were watching when we put it on as i didn't read the blurb on the back but i've never laughed so much in my whole life. This film is about women! it's about being independant and trying to find true love, it's about love disasters and hillarious situations that maybe not all of us have been in, but well....this film was brilliant and i've recommended it to all my girl friends. The restaurant scene was just so superb and the movie montage was classic... the bedroom incident..ha ha i'll never watch armageddon again without crying with laughter, the Gents toilet incident...need i say more, this film was great!

Summary: the Stupidest thing is more like it!
Review: All I can say is Why was this piece of crap even made??? I'm soooo glad I didn't pay for this thing and saw it on cable but Geez! This is humor?? for whom I ask. Sure as hell not for me.

Summary: You guys take things too seriously!
Review: This movie was no Mystic River or Titanic. However, when I bought it, that wasn't what I was looking for. This movie had me lauging harder that Something About Mary. Yea it's got some raunchy jokes and a(great)'gagging' scene but I think it is no worse than some similar movies with men in the leading roles. Can't handle the fact that women can have just as many dirty thoughts as men?? I highly recommend this if you once or twice had a wild time with friends or you just love clean raunchy fun. Don't watch if you are going to take this movie seriously and poo poo on it because it wasn't nominated for an Emmy.

Summary: Completely True to Life Funny Movie
Review: The Sweetest Thing is one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time!! There are many scenes between the girls that actually happen in real life. The song in the restaurant was so funny my girlfriends and I had to watch it again and again.
Beware guys!! Woman are the ones with all the control. We control the game. You are merely little toys we play with on a regular basis.
This is a movie that both Woman and guys will love.

Summary: No audience connection
Review: I have no doubt that there is a story here, but the flow of this movie doesn't really want to let the story come out. The basic premise is two people find each other when they least expect it. In this comedy, the story is driven by one character's quest to find this love before it is too late. Hijinks ensue.

What can go wrong with this? Comedy is largely driven by the seemingly unconnected episodes of our lives, but in this movie, the unconnected episodes just seem to distract. How does a song-and-dance number fit in? An unfortunate incident with the braces also seems out of place as it doesn't seem to drive the story at all. Selma Blair is a good actress, but her role in this film doesn't seem to mesh with the others.

There are some funny moments, but they are few and far between. I would not recommend seeing this movie. The story doesn't connect with the audience at all.

Summary: What a waste of time....
Review: When Cristina (Diaz) met her perfect match Peter at one of the exclusive clubs she knew he was Mr. Right. The next day, she just discovered that Peter was gone and the story went as a wild goose chase in a 31/2 hour road trip with her friend (Applegate) to look for Mr .Right who they eventually found out he was going to get married. Heart broken Cristina went home. Peter during the wedding ceremony found out that he too had feelings for the "hottie" and the wedding was off. The story concluded with the anticipated ending.

This DVD was a waste of time. It was one of Diaz's worst movies. She and her friends acted like high school girls considering that they were already working. [...] Being wet in that sleazy restroom after they destroyed the pipings of the urinal they decided to remove their clothes off and drive in their undies. It tried hard to create laughs but it really just wanted to show some flesh to add to the DVD's claim: "sexy never before seen footages" . Although the lesbian "scene" where Diaz was looking for her lipstick in the floor while Applegate was driving which caused the accident of the biker boy had given me some laughs. IMHO, Diaz was miscasted. This movie was revealing... yes revealed a lot of Diaz's straight non-curvaceous body and her small boobs. They should have replaced her with a dumb blonde with a more voluptuous body if this was a sexy comedy movie. She also had some really bad close up shots which made me think how could this actress be as irresistible in her previous movie "There's Something About Mary".

All the while the movie developed that the brother was getting married and all conversations at the driving range pointed to that until the last moment at church revealing Peter getting married (?) Heeellllloooooo!!!

Just showed that girls can be really desperate and brainless when emotions take over. They can go to the extent of going to wild escapades without really thinking of consequences. What's worse, someone is there to accompany them in this non-sensical caper. Duhhhh...

This movie tried hard to be funny but turned out to be irritating to the extreme. That's just me though....

Summary: Sweetest Thing is the Sweetest Movie
Review: I just love this movie. I think all three women are just great. This movie makes me laugh every time I watch it. If you are looking for a chick flick with a laugh, pop this one in when you get a chance! If you don't mind seeing how women really think from time to time!!! Well done to all the actors in this movie!! And, thanks to the writer for putting down on paper what women think too!!
