This was a clever movie; I saw it on IFC while clicking through the channels. It's not a high budget film but it is very cute and funny. The presentation is fresh, these guys definitely don't take themselves or their predicaments seriously. I even laughed out loud a couple of times, which almost never happens at movies nowadays. I would definitely recommend it. It's a buddy film that's undeniably appealing to the chick-flick crowd too. The chemistry and camaraderie between the two main characters (or maybe more accurately, the real-life friends who play them) is genuine and palpable. You'll be treated to a number of clever celebrity cameos, but mostly you should just expect to be hopelessly drawn to a couple of guys you've never seen or heard of before. The fact that Shapiro and Dozier are the same guys who wrote/lived the story undoubtedly contributes to the movie's charm, but who cares why it works...it just works!

This is an excellent movie!!! I caught it on TBS a few years back and looked in vein to find a copy for myself....quirky....fun and ultimately entertaining. I was able to see it again again recently and shared it with a friend....they too were taken in by the story. Buy this movie...sit back and prepare to be engaged with Margo......put it in your cart now!

This was one of those movies that you stumble on when you're trying to do something else, and end up not getting your original plan done. This movie was just captivating to me, in a very quirky way. It's got all the nice things about being an indie movie: a fresh plot, engaging characters, nonsequiteurs that become inside jokes ("Thanks, Margo!"), and more. But without taking itself too seriously, which I think is very important. And above all, it is funny. This movie gave me belly laughs. I was sad to see it wasn't on DVD to buy when I first saw it, but I'm glad it's around now. As was said when the Titanic came into port in Ghostbusters 2... "Better late than never."

This is a deliciously neurotic film about Margo, and her relationships, tracked by two friends who were also both married to her at one time or another. Margo not only left her men broken hearted, but also got the dogs in each settlement. We get reoccurring glimpses of Margo walking an ever growing pack of canines as the movie progresses. This movie is edgy, redeeming, and also, via a cameo appearance, gives the viewer a chance to remember and say goodbye to Payne Stewart, who was both a remarkable man and golfer. I say buy it now. I can't ever imagine this film getting a negative review. When this film showed on IFC, people stopped each other on the street the next day to talk about how enjoyable it was.
