Review of The Sweetest Thing (2002) by Ana C — 28 Jan 2010
From July 21, 2007:
The Sweetest Thing is a predictable, generic film; a thin romantic comedy punctuated by the gross-out humor that made Cameron Diaz famous in There's Something About Mary, only now she's part of a gaggle of commitment-phobic girls (odd turnaround that) who like to party with or without men, until she finds that one guy that suddenly makes her decide she's "tired of the game." Add to that a semi-cute but vapid guy, a road trip complete with a panty-dance, and sex with a guy in an elephant suit in a dressing room, and that is essentially this movie.
And there's really no more to discuss. There was an awful lot of penis and semen jokes in the middle of this alleged comedy, and girls acting like girls, if girls act like them. Otherwise, the film proved to be a pale entry into this already mass-produced genre.
