It does manage to be more fun than most romantic comedies these days.
09/07/01
Top CriticIt's got the kind of friskiness that makes you exchange glances with the stranger seated next to you because both of you know how many things it gets right about relationships.

The lead actors are nicely matched in looks and organic screen chemistry, crucial for this kind of story to work.

Top CriticOverly obvious yet often funny.
09/06/01
It wears its silly, clichéd sexual politics with a sassy, bold, funny pride -- empty, but proud.
09/06/01
Fox gives her all and manages to rise above the material.

09/10/01

Offers for most of its length a wickedly funny romp that takes witty aim at traditional gender roles and stereotypes.
09/07/01
Anderson's and Mo'Nique's talents make Two Can Play That Game just amusing and light enough to be worth the trouble despite its often trite familiarity.
09/13/01
All girls-night-out and a pint of Haagen-Dazs.
09/06/01
A cute little trifle that delivers on the good time it promises.
