    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Ben Affleck signed onto the film with the belief that it'd support his brother Casey Affleck in his first leading role, while he played a small uncredited role. He was surprised to see his name in the trades as a headline for signing onto the film.
    • Goofs
      Although apparently set on New Year's Eve 1981, numerous automobile designs that were introduced well after 1981 are visible in various shots.
    • Quotes

      Jack: Look, what happened between us last night is like this ongoing problem with me. It happens all the time: I meet someone, we go home together, but then the next day it's...

      Cindy: What? Next day what?

      Jack: Well, they tell me that suddenly they've developed these feelings for me.

      Cindy: What are you saying, that every woman you go home with falls in love with you or something?

      Jack: Yes! It's like a curse! It never ends!

      Cindy: A woman falls in love with you and you think that's a curse?

      Jack: You have no idea!

      Cindy: No! I don't! Because I think you're lucky! I mean, there are some people who wait their entire lives for somebody to tell them they feel that way about them, and you, you just throw it away like it's nothing, like it's a minor inconvenience! Well let me tell you something, Jack, you are cursed - just not the way you think you are.

    • Crazy credits
      At the end of credits Disco Cabie can be heard saying, "If you only remember one thing I've said, remember this; James Brown is the baddest motherf@cker in show business."
    • Alternate versions
      A workprint copy exists, which does add some extra footage

    i think you gotta be puff puffed out to be into this film
    It may just be me but when i was introduced into this flick through a mate of mine back in 2002 and thought it was absolutely brilliant...BUT this may just be me.I love films with small budgets/small budget looks etc and with a plot that can keep you well entertained.

    Personally i felt that every actor/actress involved done a marvelous job with their roles, and being a fan of the likes of Paul Rudd, Dave Chappelle (also tied with him Guillermo Diaz - Half Baked is a classic) and definitely not forgetting the Afflecks, and to stimulate that macho side of me i better name Janeane Garofalo as a great cult actor.I found myself gut-twisted to realize that Courtney Love (to whom i thought i despised) was pretty damn alright in this flick (again i haven't really seen another flick with her in).

    Back on point and to conclude i watched this flick about 3 years ago and loved it...Over time it kept creeping up on me and remembering the title i search the net and was sad to realize that a PAL(UK/Euro) copy was not available...Thy blessed thou Multi-region DVD Player and bought an NTSC from the states and the results were that of one satisfied customer. As to summarizing, if you enjoy films such as Half Baked, Idle Hands or teen movies to the likes of Van Wilder then buying this movie is without a doubt for you..If you are the absolute opposite of this then i advise you SPRINT away from this movie as with all NEW satirical comedies there are phrases/words that may be offensive to some and also not too many people are comfortable with liberal-type issues, older generations shall i say?.

    Buy this movie but remember you are not buying the "meaning of life" so don't expect miracles such as water into wine but do expect an attractive cast and plot with many many laughs throughout.
