Former South Park writer and Win Ben Stein's Money sidekick Nancy Pimental makes her feature screenwriting debut with this relationship comedy. Cameron Diaz stars as Christina Walters, a jaded, club-hopping single woman in San Francisco who has given up trying to find the perfect mate to focus on "Mr. Right Now." Her equally cynical friend, Courtney (Christina Applegate), a divorce attorney, shares much the same attitude, while their pal, Jane (Selma Blair), is more starry-eyed and naïve. Christina's attitude gets an unexpected makeover one evening at a nightclub when she meets Peter Donahue (Thomas Jane), a real estate agent she finds adorable and just about perfect. Unfortunately, Peter leaves and all Christina knows about him is that his brother, Roger (Jason Bateman), is getting married soon in their small hometown. Recognizing her friend's romantic distress, Courtney suggests they road trip to the wedding and Christina agrees, leading to encounters with a series of obstacles, including some funky leftovers, a filthy service station restroom, and a rather unpleasant revelation once the women arrive at the nuptials. The Sweetest Thing co-stars Parker Posey. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

Cameron Diaz takes part in another trio, but she's less than an angel in The Sweetest Thing. The gross-out girls movie by Nancy Pimental arrives on DVD with both widescreen and full-screen presentations. Dolby Digital 5.1 audio is offered in English or French languages with like subtitles. Special features include a filmmakers' commentary with director Roger Kumble, director of photography Anthony Richmond, screenwriter Nancy Pimental, producer Cathy Konrad, and executive producers Stewart Besser and Ricky Strauss. "A Day in the Life of Nancy M. Pimental" is a parody of what it's like to be a screenwriter; "Politically Erect" is a fun behind-the-scenes featurette with the cast and crew; and storyboard comparisons for the Motorcycle and Bird scenes are included along with filmographies and trailers for The Sweetest Thing, Charlie's Angels, Cruel Intentions, Enough, Mr. Deeds, My Best Friend's Wedding, New Best Friend, Panic Room, and Wild Things. On a whole, this is a pretty sweet package. ~ Terri Clark, All Movie Guide
