..."groom" hat and status to a best friend. Cut to after the opening credits, however, and we still find he is waking up next to one of the strippers (Becky), to his horror. And why is he waking up? His mother-in-law to be is ringing just in case her daughter Karen has got there yet. Cue a chase for Becky's underwear, and her quick exit. She seems safely out of the way, the undies are safely lodged in the toilet cystern, and said fiancee can arrive, ...
...that wouldn't make much of a film, would it, were it to end there? (It's debatable whether the whole thing *does* make much of a film, but there you go.) No, our hero now finds himself unable to get away from Becky. Being very poor at that job, on her first night, he next sees her at a freeway toll-booth, being very poor at that job, on her first day.

Disadvantages: You've seen it all before...

A guy thing. A guy thing is another one of those Hollywood movies that fits the modern age in that it's quite funny, quite well written and quite well acted.

...to 'girls' although it is a nice inoffensive amiable comedy that trundles along and is very watchable. It is well written and the action does keep moving and will keep you interested and it has some very funny scenes (my favourite is the one with the barrier and the car).

Advantages: The jokes are "laugh out loud" funny.
Disadvantages: The plot isn't anything we haven't seen before.

...lined with Becky's psychotic ex, a very graceful fat man, soiled women's underwear and a nasty case of crabs. I won't spoil the, in my opinion, boring, let-down of an ending. But it's nothing you wouldn't have seen coming a mile off anyway. That being said, the comedy was good. The gags that were supposed to be funny, were, in fact, very funny. And the acting itself wasn't half bad. Jason Lee's been in better roles i'll admit, but at least he gets ... Read review
