    Manages to distract auds from the predictability of the plot with fusillades of profanely funny dialogue and some playfully sexy chemistry generated by Cook and Hudson.

    Eventually the conventions of romantic comedy take hold, with the humor declining precipitously.

    A date not entirely to be skipped. It's a movie tailor-made for those who think it's a turn-on to passionately kiss someone to whom they've just said, "I hate you."

    The actors (especially Alec Baldwin, as Tank's horndog dad) elevate the material slightly, but such piffle will just fill you with longing...for a better movie.

    The movie is raunchier than expected, and above all clichd, formulaic and thoroughly sexist. Worst, it's just not very funny.
