    Would love this quirky movie on DVD
    I know this is a quirky movie, but i really liked it. it spoke to me when i was in dating mode. for all the titles out there you'd think this would be one of them. please release on DVD. I loved the story lines and there are some really funny, pertinent-to-dating, scenes and story lines. I am not a huge fan of Courtney Cox's acting skills but she does a decent job in this. It also helps that i love Boston/green monster and this takes place there, and they show a lot of good olé Boston landmarks.

    Arie gross and k. pollack do a fantastic good cop bad cop along with Julie brown.
