iThe Sweetest Thing/i does not work for me, but it is an enthusiastic and committed attempt.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Feb 15, 2022

An interminable, absolutely abhorrent comedy...

| Original Score: 0/4 | Nov 19, 2020

The Sweetest Thing is worth a peek at a matinee price if only to see the talented cast who go for broke, have fun with themselves and their characters and who, at the very least, remind us all that girls, like guys, just wanna have fun...

Extremely lowbrow -- definitely not for kids.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 29, 2010

The filmmakers have obviously studied There's Something About Mary, and learned nothing.

It's not great or inspired by any means, but it's cute and amusing enough.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Dec 6, 2005

Call it a younger, West Coast cousin to Sex and the City, or There's Something About Mary from the woman's point of view.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 25, 2004

If a date suggests the two of you should go and see this film dump them.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Mar 10, 2003

...Mixes smut and wacky girlfriend antics in equal parts, often scoring the guilty chuckle in spite of itself, with plenty of bra-and-panty shots to please the guys.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 8, 2003

Just when you think it's going to be a sappy chick flick, The Sweetest Thing surprises with a lewd joke or half-naked girl.

| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Jan 13, 2003

Cameron Diaz "comedy" follows the Farrelly brothers' path with degrading, unfunny "jokes" that make you feel unclean just watching them.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 7, 2002

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 30, 2002

Fundamentally ugly in its supposition of normalcy in its uncreative, sex-starved protagonists.

Full Review | Aug 25, 2002

The overriding effect of watching these actresses debase themselves is the cinematic equivalent of a motorway car wreck.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 13, 2002

...'forgettable' is one of the best things one could call this film.
