I enjoyed the movie because I've recently found myself in a similar situation, but the ending of the film doesn't quite fit reality. If this film is supposed to be about how men and women see relationships, what does this film... Full review

The main problem with this movie is that the three actors in it could simply not carry the entire thing. It was interesting for about 30 or 45 minutes but then it just seemed to never end. Heather Graham looks great,... Full review

And though Threesome isnt the greatest movie either, it beats Two Girls and a Guy by allowing you to care and interact with the characters on an unforced level.
Although Two Girls and a Guy interesting enough in theory to recommend, I dont suggest making it a top priority to see.

Chalk it up to the shameless migoyny of writer/director James Toback (the man responsible for the ludicrous script of Warren Beatty's "Bugsy".......while some of the topics are interesting, no new ground is broken due to the banal dialogue and lack of rhythm.....the characters fail to take a turn for the better when they should.....there are a few surprises, but the twists aren't realistic.... ...

Contrary to popular rumour, the following film does not contain an explicit scene of raunchy sex.....Happily, partial redemption arrives in the manic presence of the actor chosen to play the actor.....By then, nothing does, leaving the film's successful deception to double as its eventual failure --....Toback paces the suspense nicely, letting his camera roam the loft's wide-open spaces....his performance, his antic disposition, has a mesmerizing power..... ...

The successfulness of such a film usually depends on the quality of the dialogue and performances, which is unfortunate since "Two Girls and a Guy" rarely has intelligent and provocative dialogue, and the performances are far from impressive.
After seeing this film, I made a rule that in order to like a movie, it shouldn't be physically painful to watch.

Instead, he's fashioned a hateful film about how all people are scum.
James Toback's "Two Girls and a Guy" is a thoroughly cynical look at modern romance and the general state of contemporary interaction between human beings.
