intense and funny and witty and and more than anything and social comedy on the way of adult dating and it result be it good or bad . mohr and nicholson be engage couple two month away from a wedding date and when a bizarre event at their engagement party force nicholson to re think the relationship and start to date other people so she would not feel so pristine when it come to sexual experience . this lead to a disaster of event follow mohr and nicholson and and their cohort . very intelligent and need in this time of clumsy and condescend comedy and while contain your usual variety of comedic and sexual and and frustrated character ( especially charles a a sexually frustrated sex fiend . very annoy ) who even they seem to get the right feel to this heart felt commentary . the film go the way film should go these day and show that guy be sensitive at heart and have moral . most of the male character be the moralistic and straight forward eye and while the woman be the fresh faced street prowler who will stop at nothing to get pleasure . guy will be appreciative of the message make for guy with self respect and however it be easy to assume that most male who do see this film will use it message of male sensitivity cover up any flaw or trait that a female might find offending . still and the writing formula use this a a tool to pave the way for it male lead and particularly those of mohr and richter and and find the director in a cameo a a sale man . the female be by far the most promiscuous a they speak of nothing but pleasure and what it would be like to . with someone else . they have amicable trait though and even though they be cover by the image of sex drive kitten . very funny stuff . on another level and the film follow some of it ensemble into different relationship work . richter meet up with a stressed divorcée ( a very remarkable and noteworthy performance by the always reliable helen slater ) name penelope who be divorce with a son who hat her for split with his father . a the two go deeply into a relationship and human interest be reveal and both the comedy and tragedy of divorce and start anew be study . by the end of the film and mohr and nicholson have become way to deep over the head to see what come next and and it be up to what they have learn about each other and themselves to decide what will come next . it become appropriate and dramatic at just the right time . wallodorski direction be emulate very well when the character learn to face each other after all that have happen . with the right end . all in all and this film should have be release nationwide and and i should hope that it be up for some academy award . maybe helen slater can finally get the recognition she deserve . anywho and this film be a no hit miss and give it all you get romantic sex farce and displayed very maturely and aesthetically . great film .
