it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.
Lidia Draper
Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Jayden-Lee Thomson
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
Leoni Haney
Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

It seems this movie gets watched either because of Jon Bon Jovi or in spite of him. I'm one of the latter - it was on TV right after my supper and i said ok, now i'll watch this movie even if JBJ is starring... i must say that my prejudice wasn't based on his acting, as i never watched him act - it's more that i find his music trash. But he turned out quite a ok actor. But even better was the movie overall - a smart relationships- and looking-for-love story with a nice plot revolving around 5-and-a-half characters and taking sharp turns every 10 minutes, with (almost) everything happening at wrong times. I did find the style of some of the main characters' various confessions slightly over-styled for the confidant at hand, but i did like the idea of every character having his own way of analysing him/herself aloud (confession booth, support-group, taxi-dispatcher, shrink, diary); but i also didn't mind the glitch in light of the rest of this witty, funny, honest, warm movie. I especially liked the acts of Josh Charles and Annabella Sciorra.

This was not a fast paced movie and as some say more of a chick flick. Basically it is a movie with a lot of dialogue that you might hear in your every day life. A look at the relationships of several friends as they navigate thru life. The cast consists of excellent actors Josh Charles, Joanna Going, Penelope Ann Miller, Annabella Sciorra, JoBeth Williams and Jon Bon Jovi. having seen the first 5 in movies over the years I knew they could make the characters believable but it is Jon Bon Jovi that I have seen a very rapid growth in his acting ability. He was very good and on the same level as the rest of the cast. If you want an action movie this is not the one for you but if you like the small movie that shows feelings and the things that people go thru then this might be worth seeing.

It was the front cover of the video that did it for me.I LOVE jon bon jovi (as everyone should) so when my mate (who works in a video shop) say to me "hey i have a sample of little city, do u wanna check it out and see if its worth getting?" my reply was of course the usual dribble followed by a rapid head nod and sheer appretiation for my friend.If you have seen the cover you will agree that jon (and the other bloke) look fit and you pretty much get a good felling about it. SO WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY DID THE FILM BORE ME SO MUCH???? the cast are good and can all act but the story line is twisted, boring and you are left at the end thinking....."eh?" i really didnt enjoy this movie. it actually took me 2 days to watch because i hated it so much and the only thing that kept me going was Jon and the hope that he would liven it up a bit. i am sorry but to all of you that liked this film (and from the other reviews it seems like i am the only negative one)it is a big pile of utter rubbish not eben worthy of the video shop shelf! i think i have made my point clear dont you?!?!?!

I'm a big Jon Bon Jovi fan so the only reason I rented this video was because he was in it. But the movie turned out to be really good. Even if JBJ didn't have a part, I would have enjoyed it anyway. It's about the ups & downs of being single & looking for "Mr./Ms. Right" in the 90's.
