I didn’t see this when it first came out because I find Josh Lucas’ features to be very ferret-like and that distracts me (though I’m sure he is a very nice person and has many redeeming qualities.) It was an okay movie, with some nice unique romantic comedy touches. I would rate this movie a good “flu movie” meaning one to put on when you are home sick in bed.
Bechdel reveiw: two women: yes. Who talk to each other: yes. About something besides a man: nope.
