I took my three children- and they laughed and really enjoyed themselves! My husband and I enjoyed the jokes and references that

were over our kids heads. Catching those made us laugh too. All in all, a very enjoyable time!

I feel sorry for the younger generation who think this is a film about normal, dating life. If this is normal life nowadays for young people-I am glad that I am not of this generation.

The only redeeming thing about this film is it shows how relationships built on animal magnetism usually do not work out.

I was embarrassed for Ashley Judd to have to do a cheerleading sequence in her underwear. Not just that it was underwear- but so unflattering. I guess it was supposed to charge some chemistry between the two roommates.

Who would want Hughs character(Eddie) after he slept with about a hundred women a year (going by the Trojans in the medicine cabinet)!?? What a signal sent to young people. Rubbers don't keep you from getting herpes, veneral warts, emotional traumas and other diseases that accompany frequent sexual encounters from multiple partners with no emotional attachment. And finding the "right thing" would change this man's sexual appetite and emotional insecurities?

And Jane's elation at, not being asked to be married, but to "move in together". Such tears of joy to be asked to play house? Any good quality I saw in her character was gone and I thought she was at least intelligent up to that point. Plus her best friend is so raunchy- I was amazed she held a job in the corporate world. She belonged behind a bar in a bowling alley.

I think the actors did a good job given the the material they had to work with.

This film is a waste of 1 hour and 37 minutes- unless you like looking down Ellen Barkins shirt- or up her skirt.

I have never commented on a film before, but after reading some of the above cynical, snide so-called reviews- I have to put this out there for others who are thinking about seeing this new Disney movie. I will keep this short and to the point.

My family ranges from ages 4-38, and we ALL enjoyed it immensely! The people in the theater were all laughing throughout! Cuba Gooding was great at slapstick comedy! His acting was believable and moved me to tears when he was talking to his "father".

There was something for everyone- and the dogs were cute and funny too. As for plot- there was plenty! And the end was sweet! Nichelle gave a warm and realistic portrayal of the cookie baking mama.

The scenery was magnificant- from Florida to the white capped Northern Mountains. I am not a Disney fan- bit I can not find fault with this film. Well worth the admission price on the entertainment scale. If I may be permitted to say- two thumbs up! Wish there were more great feeling films out there like this one!
