⭐ Featured Review

The set-up was better than the pay-off
by red95king2003-07-28

"The first hour or so of this film shows much promise. But then fast-forward the timeline, throw in a couple big time formula plot twists and the movie degenerates rapidly. I enjoyed the performances, but the writers should have spent more time developing the relationship between "J" and "R". They win each other over so quickly that what follows loses all potential to be emotionally moving. Despite the shortcomings this is not a bad film. Just one that had a lot more promise that was not explored...."

💡 Did You Know?

Leelee Sobieski's character, Jennifer, has a number of facial piercings, and cartilage piercings in both ears, but does not have her earlobes pierced - to which a reference is made in the movie. At the time the movie was made, Leelee herself did not have pierced earlobes, as she did not have them done until 2006. Specially for her part in this movie, she did, however, have both nostrils, both eyebrows and her lip pierced, along with the cartilage of both ears. After filming was completed, she removed the piercings and allowed them to close up again, but kept the jewelry as a souvenir of the movie.
