Review: The Sweetest Thing
Review: The Sweetest Thing |
| Posted: Cameron Diaz plays Christina, a woman who's in denial of fearing commitment. Her room-mates Courtney and Jane, played by Christina Applegate and Selma Blair, are also in the same predicament. They go to a dance club and Christina grabs into Peter, played by Thomas Jane. Sensing chemistry without getting the whole story, Christina and Courtney take a road trip to find him. The commercial for this movie makes it look like a chick flick; but, in reality, it's more of a female skin fest, featuring Cameron Diaz and Christina Applegate in very skimpy outfits. I couldn't quite figure out why this movie is rated R. Scary Movie (the first one) had grosser humor in it than this and it was rated PG-13. The storyline gets a bit erratic at times. The film editor seems to be a bit asleep at the wheel. It does have it's funny moments, including a... uhhh, tonsil piercing of sorts. ;) Pre-movie warnings: VERY brief nudity (male butt cheeks), profanity, a truckload of innuendo, ladies' room groping, some off-key singing on Cameron's part, and the re-immergence of the acting career of Jason Bateman (don't ask me why). A semi-decent matinee date movie; but, I wouldn't shell out the night time bucks on this one. |
