My gut still hurts from laughing.

Borrowing from romantic comedies and gross-out flicks, it tries to appeal to everybody, but this misogynistic chick flick instead pleases nobody.

I thought it was funny! Fun to watch on a Saturday night....alone....drinking...eating raviolis.I loved when he woke up and didn't know who he slept with.Just goes to show ladies! Never put an ultimatum on your man because it could backfire! And do you really want him if you have to do that in the first place?Also,

Funny movie with a good story and some pretty bust-out-loud laughing scenes. Ryan Reynolds is the same kind of character he is in all his movies but it isn't annoying (in fact, after one point he becomes outright hilarious) yet I think this is one of his best jobs acting. As far as romantic comedies goes, this is one of the best I've seen.
