    • Goofs
      Joe's weight changes throughout the movie, as can be seen by the size of his neck. Matthew Perry's weight was changing because of his drug addiction while he was filming (see Trivia).

      [Sara Moore's jeans' pant leg gets caught in a roller of a machine]

      Sara Moore: Help me!

      [Joe Tyler helps her by unbuttoning her jeans and then tearing that caught pant leg off]

      Sara Moore: Jesus Christ! I said, "Help me," not "Undress me."

      Joe Tyler: Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't hear you over that big machine that was going to rip you into pieces.

    Oh yes...

    I saw this movie, mainly because Matthew Perry was in it, and I love his Chandler Bing character. Now, I first feared "oh no, this is going to be some romantic mumbo jumbo", but NO. Ofcourse this film contains romance, but it's ok, cause it's funny as hell. Perry makes several characters in this movie, which are worth it alone. Hilarious and I can definately recommend it, eventhough the plot line is a little weak, but Perry and his co-stars makes totally up for it..
