idiotic, juvenile and unintelligent unless you're one of these guys, 21 April 2005
2/10
Author: Zoltan Grandpierre from Los Angeles

This is my revenge for having wasted 88 minutes of my life watching this film, but I tell you right now that some guys in the audience thought it was a knee slapper and laughed hard. The opening credits are beautifully shot, and the end credits are equally pleasing. The poster for the film is gorgeous! In between: you're stuck with six men in a cigar club telling each other inanities about women. Some of these guys are decent actors and Estella Warren does a very good job given what she has to work with.

Those grown-up characters have absolutely nothing interesting to say (or politically incorrect, which the film claims to be). The behind-the-scene story and other media turns out to be much more captivating than the movie itself.
