Genre: Comedies

Synopsis: Seth Winnick has it all -- a successful career in television, good friends, and a passionate relationship with the beautiful Chelsea Turner. However, when he fails to make a timely marriage... Seth Winnick has it all -- a successful career in television, good friends, and a passionate relationship with the beautiful Chelsea Turner. However, when he fails to make a timely marriage proposal, Chelsea behaves as is she has been bitten by a rapid squirrel. The two redirect their passion into malice and forge a sordid "anti-relationship," replacing love and tenderness with vengeance and venom, which fuels a series of bids to out do the other with acts of cruelty. This unromantic comedy features cameos by Jason Bateman, Christian Slater, and Tiffani-Amber Thiessen. [More]

With 3rd Rock from the Sun's French Stewart in the lead, it's hard to not think 'sitcom' while watching this 'un-romantic comedy.'

Inane writing and a flaccid plot.

A one-dimensional comedy that mostly falls flat.

Love Stinks is a lively turn on an old idea.

Love Stinks is proof that even an awful, poorly executed idea can be borderline entertaining if it has enough funny jokes.
