Movie Reviews of The Sweetest Thing (Unrated Edition)

Movie Review: Funny....for women
Summary: 2 Stars

I saw this film on tv one day and I thought it was decent. Both Diaz and Applegate are beautiful and talented but I dont really watch chick flicks alot. It has some funny moments but from a guys view, its not that great.

Summary of The Sweetest Thing (Unrated Edition)

Where can a girl who is usually the heartbreaker find the perfect guy? For Christina Walters (Cameron Diaz) the answer is the San Francisco nightclub where she meets Peter Donahue (Thomas Jane). Unfortunately their meeting is fleeting and this quintessential hip party girl is left in unfamiliar territory--smitten by a total stranger. Determined to see her best friend happy Courtney Rockliffe (Christina Applegate) takes Christina on a road trip to Peter's sleepy California hometown in search of the man of her dreams. In the meantime Christina's roommate the just-dumped Jane Burns (Selma Blair) engages in her own lusty pursuits. Diaz and Applegate have great chemistry and are utterly believable as best friends. The script by Nancy M. Pimental who wrote for South Park blends raunchy humor and sentimentality both of which are complimented by a healthy dose of sight gags. Directed by Roger Kumble (CRUEL INTENTIONS) THE SWEETEST THING is an amusing--albeit somewhat crude--look at what people will do for love. The film also features Jason Bateman in fine form as Peter's brother indie queen Parker Posey as a bride-to-be and a brief appearance by Applegate's real-life husband actor Jonathan Schaech.System Requirements:Running Time 90 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?COMEDY Rating:?Unknown UPC:?043396095908 Manufacturer No:?09590

Prudes, beware! Despite its tendency to take the comedic low road, The Sweetest Thing is a near-perfect product of the new-millennial Hollywood. That's a backhanded compliment, but as a fun-loving Yankee girl's answer to Bridget Jones's Diary, the mainstream pandering of Nancy Pimental's lucrative screenplay is undeniably effective. On the opening soundtrack, Macy Gray's "Sexual Revolution" is a perfect accompaniment to gyrating guy-dumper Christina (Cameron Diaz), whose fear of commitment is tested when she meets Peter (Thomas Jane) and knows he's Mr. Right. With supportive gal-pals Courtney (Christina Applegate) and Jane (Selma Blair), she plots to snag the guy, and the movie's road-trip detour mines gut-busting gold from gags involving incriminating dress stains, oral sex, rotting food, garish clothing, and the simple joys of old-fashioned romance. Perfectly cast, raucously ribald, and conventionally charming, The Sweetest Thing is a schizophrenic comedy, but its dual personalities are irresistibly in synch. --Jeff Shannon
