Editorial Reviews

Screen superstar Jennifer Love Hewitt (I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER, CAN'T HARDLY WAIT) heads a hot young cast in this fresh, fun comedy about life, love, and finally growing up! Instead of moving on to bigger and better things after college graduation, best buddies Phil (Peter Facinelli -- CAN'T HARDLY WAIT, DANCER, TEXAS) and Dennis are embarrassed to find themselves making pizzas and avoiding old classmates who come in for a slice. But before long, Phil is discovered by an annoyingly sweet ex-girlfriend (Hewitt) who won't leave him alone ... while Dennis summons the courage to finally face his future and the dream girl who got away. Also featuring a hilarious performance from Matthew Lillard (SCREAM, SHE'S ALL THAT) in a great cast -- the swirl of youthful confusion surrounding dating, friendship, and destiny has never been this funny!

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the money!, July 16, 2000

This review is from: Telling You (DVD)

This was such a disappointing movie. The previews made it seem like it would be great--starring Jennifer Love Hewitt, Peter Facinelli and Matthew Lillard. All three of them had been in movies I loved before like Can't Hardly Wait. But this was a very disappointing movie.

First the majority of the movie takes place in a pizza parlor where Dash and Facinelli work. It is mostly about life after school where some people are going off to make the most of their lives and these guys are working in a slow pizza place. Hewitt is by no means the star or even a major role in this movie--she palys an obnoxious girl and is on screen for a total of less than 15 mintues. A total waste. And Lillard plays his usual role as a hotshot, but like Hewitt, has his talent completely wasted in this film.

I was so disapointed in this movie. I expected more from a cast that had produced other great movies in the past. I wouldn't waste my time or money on this movie.

3.0 out of 5 stars Jenny oh Jenny, July 19, 2000

This review is from: Telling You (DVD)

Even the stunning Jennifer Love-Hewitt could not provide an uplifting performance to justify rating this movie any higher. It obtains this raiting simply because of content, not quality.

1.0 out of 5 stars telling you, February 27, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Telling You [VHS] (VHS Tape)

from the summary on the back of the video tape the film sounded good - how wrong can you be! After 30 mins of suffering i turned the video off - but did finish watching it the next day but it was just as awful. The film is slow moving to the point that nothing really happens at all. The main actor was dreadful and the other actors that were good hardly got any on screen time. The cover for the video has 2 girls and 2 boys - the girls are on screen for a few minutes only.

Basically a total waste of money - i wouldn't recomend anyone to buy this movie.
