Storyline

When Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) first got together, their romantic connection was intense - but ten years and two kids later, the flame of their love needs a spark. To kick things up a notch, they decide - why not? - to make a video of themselves trying out every position in The Joy of Sex in one marathon three-hour session. It seems like a great idea - until they discover that their most private video is no longer private. With their reputations on the line, they know they're just one click away from being laid bare to the world... but as their race to reclaim their video leads to a night they'll never forget, they'll find that their video will expose even more than they bargained for.

User Reviews

Pretty bad

This is the problem with going out with friends who have very different taste in films than you... you get dragged to go see stuff like this, stuff that you would have otherwise not seen. I've gotten really tired of Jason Segal doing his usual comedy routine in everything he comes out in. I'm so sick of him. Cameron Diaz is charming enough and definitely does her best, but there's just so much one can do with the material. The supporting performances aren't bad, in particular Rob Lowe who is pretty hilarious. The scenes in his house are easily the only good thing about the film, and seeing as how that part was pretty hilarious, I can't give it such a lower score.
