one of the funniest films ever, 15 July 2002
Author: the_last_shadow_2000 from USA

I stumbled upon this film on HBO about a month ago thinking it would be a dull movie, but through about thirty minutes through the film I realized it wasn't and that it was one of the funniest films in the world. Most adults could find this humour angering and dense, but teenagers would find this movie funny, good plotted with a good storyline. And what about Keri Russell who is so hot in this film. I give this movie ten out of ten. Please watch this movie because it is good, funny, and ABSOLUTELY GREAT!!
