Trivia:

When Matthew Perry first goes to Amy's apartment, she asks him "Are you always this nervous?" This is the same question 'Bruce Willis (I)' asks him when they first go for a car ride in The Whole Nine Yards (2000). Both times the response is "yes."

Goofs:

Continuity: The taxi cab Amy and Oscar take after leaving the restaurant (where they ate the tuna melt) changes from a newer model car they pulled over (and whose handle they broke), to an older boxier model in the cut scene with them driving away in the rain, then back to the same newer model they pulled over in the first place.

Quotes:

Amy: So I take it you have kissed a woman before?
Oscar Novak: Not the right one.

Sweet!

Neve Campbell doesn't get any sweeter than this. You've seen her as a bitchy Party of Five chic and a Jamie Lee Curtis style victim but this is where she's at her best...quirky, cute, believable and fun. I think this is what Neve is like in real life! She's perfect for adorably eecentric Amy. Matthew Perry (though not looking his best) is charming and fun and at times steals the show!!! Oliver Platt isn't too bad either. The basic story is Perry and Platt are two partners in business, they're competeing with another set of partners. Platt is gay, Perry isn't. The story gets reversed to where the bosss thinks Perry is gay so he asks him to watch out for Amy with whom he's having an affair. End of Story. Did you get that? Within the first five minutes you know whats gonna happen but its a sweet, big hearted little film that makes you want somebody to cuddle up with :) A must see for Neve fans
