"This was playing in limited release in Los Angeles and New York to qualify for awards, so I got to see a screening of it, and I am so glad i can now get it on DVD. the whole audience was crying and laughing, and for good reason. It's the MOST ROMANTIC movie i have seen in years without being sappy. You have to watch it to understand. absolutely the best VALENTINE'S DAY gift ever. the only thing i didn't like so much in the film was the hand/held camera work, which on a big screen makes me a bit dizzy. (okay, so maybe i am dizzy already, haha). But the acting & writing was GREAT."

LOVE STORY that makes you LAUGH and CRY

"Best love story since "The Notebook". Also very funny. At first you think it's sort of like "Sex & The City", which is kind of is as far as the women are the main characters, but it goes from being ha-ha funny to man-that-happened-to-me-too! type of funny. if you want to have the girls over for a good cry, rent this. or you can watch it with your boyrfriend, the movie has a good job of showing the men's point of view on things. Loved it!!!!"

If you liked the movie "Sideways", this is actually better

"This story was written by and starred Indie film writer Stevie Long. If you like the concept of two girl friends meeting two guy friends, and experimenting with meaningless sex and casual nonchalant behavior because of it, then you will enjoy this film.

These girls have no interest in having a real relationship with any guy, but they still want sex and they want to have it as a needed pass time, not as a loving relationship, but that's not how it turns out. Emotions get in the way and that causes them to actually discuss their feelings, which ruins everything for one couple, but blossoms into something special for the other couple.

One girl (Amber Benson) loves wild and carnivorous sex, while the other girl (Kristen Kerr) is more shy and inhibited. Of the guys, one guy (Stevie Long, this story's writer) feels compelled to insult women and yet that seems to make his girl more wild and horny. While the other guy (Johann Urb), the nice guy (the mistake most of us guys make being) is more patient with his more hesitant shyer girl and yet their relationship grows into something more strong and meaningful. I don't think anybody here wanted to fall in love, but how cold, shallow, and disconcerting can you be if you continually keep the same person as your only sexual encounter?

I liked how the shy girl starts to realize her own need for sexual spontaneity, as the best scene (to me) is when they were in the car and she decided to just go down on him because her sexual yearnings were becoming more prevalent. She just had a great day at work, and so she wanted to reward herself with something sexual in the car, right away. That was very cute.

This was a great film. Even the deleted scenes (as an extra in the special features) offers some valuable dialogue about what everyone's feelings were about with their unique fabricated sexual situation with each other. I would buy this film if I found it cheaper (or used) because I think it's a great movie to follow the film "Sideways" (which actually impressed me less).

It's definitely worth renting once. Check it out."

Surprisingly loveable...

"Like I said, this flick was surprisingly loveable. Hilarious, yet soulful, I thought it offered a very sweetly unique perspective on love and relationships."
