sssimpson111999 4 years after the movie was made, I stumbled upon a gem. I was sucked in 15 minutes after it started and couldn't leave my couch even to hardly run to the bathroom. It was that great. A true representation of relationships, what guys and girls are looking for and a true replica of the men I have dated in the past. It made me wonder why I was asking the guy I have been with for 4 years for a commitment. I like to think I walked away from this film with a few more laughs and some good insight on what it is guys want or think they want! The cast was inspiring and a fun look at where some of them were just 4 years ago and how far they have come. I wish there was some more movies that made me laugh and think out loud.

kyrat Sometimes I have this strange fascination where I have to watch stuff I know I'll hate. I like Jerry O'Connell as a TV actor, but can't think of a film he's been in since Stand By Me that I've liked. I tried watching Tomcats recently and it was(unsurprisingly) awful- very stereotypical and sexist. Then I saw "Buying the Cow" on (of all places!) the Oxygen channel and that Jerry O'Connell was in it. I thought, hey, if Oxygen is playing it, it can't be that demeaning to women or perpetuate tired gender stereotypes! Boy was I wrong!There are probably less than 5 films that I have never finished watching to the end- this is one of them. I usually don't review films without watching the whole thing, but this was just too bad.I couldn't make it past the homophobic terror scene when the guy thinks he got drunk and slept with a guy -folowing by a pedophilia joke. It could have been a funny scene, but they had to push the envelope from a funny misunderstanding to sheer homophobic panic - he has to be shown vomiting and almost kill himself just to leave - and then if that wasn't tasteless enough, they added a scene where he's mistaken for a pedophile!Sexism, homophobia & pedophilia jokes do NOT make for a good movie! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

callanvass This is actually a great direct to video Comedy, that really surprised me by how enjoyable and funny it was, with fun performances!. All the characters are cool, and the story is pretty good as well, plus Jerry O'Connell plays a great funny lead!. For me though Ryan Reynolds stole a lot of the scenes, as he is absolutely hilarious, and it has some great eye candy in Bridgette Wilson and Alyssa Milano, but they also give good performances, plus it's very well made and written. One of the funniest parts in the movie for me is when Ryan Reynolds announces at a wedding that he is a raging homosexual, and also when he thinks he has slept with a man, plus it's good natured as well. All the characters are extremely likable, and this reminded me somewhat of Tomcats, only better and funnier, plus it kept me guessing throughout, as I was actually expecting it to be predictable. I'm not usually a fan of Direct to video Comedies, but this one is an exception, and I really liked the ending too, plus the whole cast seemed to be enjoying themselves. This is actually a great direct to video Comedy, that really surprised me by how enjoyable and funny it was, with fun performances, I highly recommend this one!. The Direction is great!. Walt Becker does a great! job here, with very good camera work, and just keeping the film funny and at a very fast pace. The Acting is fun!. Jerry O'Connell is very funny here as the main lead, he has lots of charisma, is very likable, offered plenty of laughs, had a cool character, and really seemed to be enjoying himself, it's too bad we don't see him as often anymore, because I really dig this guy! (Jerry Rules!!). Bridgette Wilson is incredibly gorgeous, and does very well with what she had to do, she had a likable character, and did her job well. Ryan Reynolds is absolutely hilarious here, every time he was on screen he managed to crack me up, he had a very cocky&arrogant character, but I couldn't help but love him, he stole a lot of the scenes! (Ryan Rules!!!!). Bill Bellamy is good as Jonesy I dug him. Alyssa Milano is very gorgeous, and has a sexy part, it's just she didn't have much screen time. Ron Livingston does good with what he had to do, I liked him. Erinn Bartlett and Scarlett Chorvat are hot as the Madison sisters, and played there roles fairly well. Rest of the cast are fine. Overall I highly recommend this one!. ***1/2 out of 5

TBJCSKCNRRQTreviews Just when I thought I'd seen the worst teen-oriented romantic comedies... this baby hits me. And when I say hit, I mean like a dropkick to my stomach. You may think you've seen it all, but you haven't seen this... and you should consider yourself lucky. Like Walt Becker's previous directing attempt(which was about as big of a train-wreck as this one), this features Ryan Reynolds and has incredibly poor taste in humor and will disgust just about everyone who watches it, at one point or another. Granted, this isn't as sick or graphic as Van Wilder, but it's every bit as poor. Becker decides that his talentless direction isn't enough to torture us poor viewers, and tried to write the script for this mess. Luckily, he co-wrote it with Peter W. Nelson... who doesn't seem to have written another movie neither before nor since. I don't think I have to tell you just how poorly written the film is, as the direct result of this. The love story is contrived, sappy and unbelievably predictable. The acting is just bad. The characters are never credible, their actions make no conceivable sense and all of them are paper-thin stereotypes. The humor is so painfully obvious and stupid that I can't see anyone finding it funny. The jokes are poorly set up, never funny, and repeated to the point where we're sick of them. There's only one good thing about this movie, and it's Alyssa Milano as a stripper. If you consider that reason enough to see the movie, then be my guest. Lord knows that was the only reason I gave the movie any chance at all. I recommend this to fans of romantic teen comedies and Alyssa Milano. Anyone else shouldn't bother. In fact, if you doubt you would like it, then don't watch it. It's most likely not worth your time. 5/10
