Goofs:
Continuity: The closing scene was re-shot while Hugh Jackman was filming X-Men (2000) and so Eddie's hairstyle is different from the rest of the movie.

A film, with a t.v. sitcom sensibility and a singular theme that women might look at themselves before casting stones on male dating behavior, set to a story of the romantic tribulations of one young woman, Jane Goodall (Ashley Judd - as alway, cute as a button but with star-quality range).
If not for better-than-average dialogue, Hugh Jackman -- not without charisma -- comes off wooden as Eddie Alden but for some occasionally provocative dialogue. Inconsistently, he's presented as a wise and worldly shahman-type through most of the film, then near the finale, he suddenly and inexplicably acts immature and pouty. (What is THAT about?)
Greg Kinnear -- also not without charisma -- plays, well, Greg Kinnear playing Greg Kinnear playing Ray Brown, a bit of a gigolo in a one-note performance.
Marisa Tomei is, as usual, terrific, appealing and affecting as Judd's friend, Liz, in a small but pivotal role. Ellen Barkin, who has played masculinely tough female roles before, does it again. Look fast for Naomi Judd playing a make-up artist trying to apply some on Ashley in the last few minutes.
