Details

A movie about a relationship...that's worse than yours. Seth (Stewart), a sitcom writer-producer, meets Chelsea (Wilson), an interior decorator, at his best friend's (Bellamy) wedding. He's immediately sexually attracted to her while she's instantly attracted to his single-ness. They both ditch their wedding dates and start their own date that same night. The two become a couple, appearing very happy until after a couple of years of postponing a marriage proposal. When Chelsea realizes that Seth wants to remain single and together, she becomes quite bitter. In the next hour of the movie, the two engage in behavior that makes the War of the Roses look like child's play.

Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Smoreni Zmaj If you like romantic comedies, this almost certainly has been on your repertoire. If not, immediately correct this omission. If you don't like them, see this one and you'll change your mind. I don't know if I ever laughed so hard as when I first watched this movie.Seth, young, successful and rich, enters a passionate affair with the beautiful and fiery Chelsea, not knowing that from the first moment her goal was marriage. In the first part of the movie she tries in all possible ways to make him propose, and when she realizes it might never happen she goes for hell of revenge. From the technical point of view, this film has nothing worth the attention, but the scenario is intelligent, witty and full of (un)expected twists, and French Stewart and Bridgette Wilson are perfect in their role of love-hate couple. To me, this is one of top 10 (un)romantic comedies of all time.9/10

kwalker-10 I absolutely loved this movie. I thought it was hilarious. I own it and still watch it all the time. I've also made everyone that enters my home who has not yet seen it sit down to watch. Everyone has loved it so far, guys and gals of all ages. There are way too many cheesy romance movies out there. And, by the title, many think this is what the movie is about. It is great comedy without having to deal with a silly romance going on, since virtually all movies have some kind of guy and girl live happily ever after story in it. I recommend everyone see it, especially if you've had enough of the traditional romantic movies.
marcia-waryjas While the pairing of Bridget Wilson and French Stewart seems unlikely at first, as the story unfolds it becomes clear that her true love is marriage itself. He quickly tires of her neurotic behaviors; instead of breaking it off cleanly, he tries to weasel out in hopes that she will move on. She isn't willing to give up her goal after all the time she's invested. And so it begins....As only people who know each other intimately can do, each pushes the other's buttons in the hopes of breaking the other one down. There are some deliciously evil and spiteful scenes, reminiscent of War of the Roses, but in a lighter vein. Truly witty dialogue and a fast pace make this movie is worth watching, but if that's not enough for you, watch it for the gassy bedroom scene. A lot of fun to watch, and a great ending.
