Votes: 88,096 | Gross: $41.01M

This is ok. It's a weird story but it's funny and the female friendships are cute.

On one hand, this movie is extremely anti-climatic, and so it feels like the plot about girls getting revenge on Tucker (which is the main plot) was all for nothing.

On the other hand, this isn't a cliché romcom. It's about the bonds of friendship between John's love-interests, instead of romance. Things also get resolved in a unique way.
