What to Know

Critics Consensus

This coming-of-age film's young, attractive cast helps to mitigate the stultifying dialogue and uninspired direction.

Erin Clements Time Out 04/25/2006
The Swiss-quartz comic timing of the film's ensemble cast makes its neurotic characters more compelling than your average cinematic slackers. Go to Full Review Richard Roeper Ebert & Roeper 04/24/2006
This is a hit and miss romantic comedy with a few solid laughs and some pretty smart dialogue. Go to Full Review Daniel Fienberg Zap2it.com 04/21/2006
2.5/4
I continue to enjoy Van Der Beek's willingness to play obnoxiously against type -- it turns out as a big-headed hero, he's boring, but as a big-headed ***, he's a funny guy. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews 05/08/2008

...a progressively endearing effort that boasts several superb performances and a brisk, downright fun sensibility. Go to Full Review Tony Medley tonymedley.com 09/23/2006

An independent, dialogue-heavy film that from the looks of it was made more with fun and passion than money. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

thiago s @Thiagostone Apr 18 Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, o elenco é bacaninha, mas ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, a história é fraca, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e mais relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom. See more RED 0 03/29/2024 Van Der Beek crushes it! He makes the movie. See more steve d 06/27/2020 Great cast, terrible script. See more 12/17/2012 Not a vry good movie ... Does motivate me to find the right girl, have close college buddies, graduate and GO TO LAS VEGAS!! See more 12/04/2012 A decent effort that didn't turn out as well as it should have. it has it's moments, some humor, some drama. The ending kinda makes up for a lot. I'd probably watch it again. See more 04/06/2012 Great young cast for a mediocre, seen it all before film. Some touching moments here and there, and the hen and stag parties were amusing, but overall this was just average.
