Trivia

This film was intended as a wide theatrical release; however, the film tested poorly and studio executives then considered going direct to DVD as a result. Ultimately the studio decided to give it a limited theatrical release in Texas (the home state of Jessica Simpson and Luke Wilson) in an attempt to generate interest and more accurately assess the film's box-office potential. After the film grossed only $1190.00 on eight screens, the studio decided not to expand the limited theatrical release any further.

User Reviews

good film, no matter what they say...

I'm sorry but this movie is not as bad as most people are making it out to be. It has an excellent cast, and it's a nice little story. The story isn't a very uncommon story, though, still good. Jessica Simpson is actually an OK actress and many of her goofy scenes actually put a smile on my face.

Also, as mentioned, it was a great cast. Luke Wilson, Andy Dick, Rachel Liegh Cook, Larry Miller... jeez I could keep going.

But don't read what all the people here are saying. If you look around IMDb you'll see that it's usually the same people over and over who are constantly dissing movies.

Watch and judge for yourself!!!!!!!
