The script's original title was "Call Me", a line you'll hear several of the characters use throughout the film. Also, when Peter (Tony Palermo) goes to see a movie, the marquee is filled with possible alternate titles for this project.

A flawed, but worthwhile light romantic comedy...

Just friends initially appears as another generic, feel good, cliché ridden, dating in the '90s movie. It essentially is this, but it also provides a solid character study of two people and whether or not they can remain platonic friends. "When Harry Met Sally" is a better film in the genre, but overall "Just Friends" is a decent light romantic comedy. I feel the bottom line is that romance junkies will probably enjoy it, while most others will likely become bored after the first 10-15 minutes.
