Really underrated.

This was the first movie Jennifer Aniston showed acting chops in. Paul Rudd was adorable.

Solid, charming film. The highlight (in my opinion) is Paul Rudd, though both Rudd and Aniston give respectable (but not showy) performances. It's one of Aniston's only films that feels genuine.

I liked it the first time I saw it, but didn't love it. Then I watched it a couple of years later and loved it. It's one that really grew on me with each viewing. It's sweet and adorable. Both Aniston and Rudd were great.

I'd either give it an 8/10 (A-) or 9/10 (A-). It's definitely underrated.

My second Allison Janney film in one day! Well, it's a pleasant romantic comedy; low on comedy but high on the romance. It's quite laid back and undemanding. A nice family movie with loads of F-bombs. Paul Rudd is great, Aniston is the same as ever, she never plays different roles. Every character in this seems to be gay, apart from Alda.
