    Not a very good comedy
    This is a romantic comedy movie. It revolves around three friends that fell in love with this pretty lady and the situations it created when they tried to one-up each other to get her attention.

    The acting was not bad, given the ludicrous situations. But the leading lady was horrible. From my perspective, she wasn't even all that attractive either. But it could be due to the 80's style clothing, hair, and make-up.

    Story had a pretty good setup in the beginning, some funny moments, and looked promising. But once all the setup jokes were done, and switched to "story resolution" mode, it became really boring. On top of that, the way the story was resolved was very contrived and not believable, and they went out of their way to wrap up with a goody goody happy ending that was just very forced.
