While it did have an occasional chuckle, overall it was directed by someone who hasn't been good behind the camera in many many years…

Good photography, good acting, predictable situations and dumb jokes. About as intelligent as a middling TV sitcom…

Precise, smart, and very funny in its specifics but rather clumsy and obvious when it comes to the big picture…

This is a chick flick all the way. Although it's a comedy, it's actually pretty boring with a very unique if not uninteresting plot…
