The Sweetest Thing

Filed under S - DVD Movie Club

What starts out as a typical romantic comedy begins to collapse about halfway through before finishing out in a cataclysmic fireball of pointless doom. It gets a one-half flame because the combo of Christina Applegate and Selma Blair makes the, er… cinematography… palatable. But it loses 4.5 flames due to a lame plot rife with gross-out humor that is more gross than humorous, slapstick that would do good to consult the Three Stooges for timing and originality points, and the fact that it has Cameron Diaz in it. Skip this, if you have another movie to watch. Just say no. I’m not kidding.
