Predictable but totally enjoyable
10 January 2015
I watched this when I was sick in bed with the flu and it was kinda perfect. A breezy romantic comedy that sees a very likable Ashley Judd looking for true love. When she gets dumped by her boyfriend (Greg Kinnear) she tries to recover by researching male mating patterns; comparing them to that of wildlife, (bulls, dogs, old cows etc) while also sharing an apartment with her co-worker pal (a super sexy Hugh Jackman).

So yeah this is a totally predicable chick-flick but I liked everyone in it and it didn't insult my intelligence too badly. The story was fun and easy, as was a younger Hugh Jackman playing the charming womanizer (easy on the eyes that is).

For some inexplicable reason (because I don't usually notice these types of things) I also really liked Ashley Judd's wardrobe here, but that could have been the cold medication. Also included here Marisa Tomei, Ellen Barkin and a lot of smoking, which I guess people still did back in 2001. *Sigh* 11/7/14
