This is one of those rare films that touch your funny-bone and your heart. It seems like a number of films (notably, 'About A Boy') have stolen from it, but that's probably the sincerest form of flattery. The acting is real... Full review

I picked this up at Blockbuster a couple weeks again in the discount bin and finally got around to watching it today. The story description sounded intriguing. However, getting through the entire film (even though it was only 85 minutes) was... Full review

I was drawn into this unusual independent film on cable. I call it unusual because how often are men really truthful about their actions and desires? I felt the man who made this wanted to be understood. If you like it,... Full review

Wow, this movie was amazing. Ladies, don't turn off the TV too quickly; even though the beginning may appear to be a "guy flick", this is a very moving film. TRUST ME, you'll end up wanting your boyfriend to see... Full review

Not sure what I expected when I started watching this movie. But as the movie progressed it got more interesting. Jack like most guys is either with or wants to be with many ladies throughout his life. Most is for... Full review

I saw this movie at the Sundance Film Festival, and it move me to tears, not only during the screening, but for days afterwards. The film was deep and beautiful, and I enjoyed every moment of it. This is a... Full review

I saw this film because I was really sold on the description. I'm such a sucker. What starts out funny and light quickly dissolves into melodrama of the worst kind. (Did you see The Next Best Thing?) This is the... Full review

It was funny watching Jack attempt to keep from being caught and all the steps he took to teach his son how to avoid the pitfalls of becoming a lecher like he was.

To this point the film is really not very interesting, except for the great nudity, but here is when the script really begins to show its heartfelt emotion and where Jack actually becomes human.
