Pretty fun and entertaining...

Actually a great movie, pretty fun and entertaining. They manage to squeeze some good mileage out of a tried and tested formula, with some very nice performances. Rosemarie DeWitt is especially fun to watch, and Molly Shannon's shtick mostly refreshing, while Liz Stauber manages to fill a small role with unexpectedly biting, dry wit. The men are all fine too, and their camaraderie feels fresh and real. The dialogues are loving crafted and witty, but manage to avoid being annoyingly clever. At the end I was perhaps missing a hint of a wider perspective, or deeper insight, into some of the themes previously touched upon. The story stayed firmly in romantic comedy territory, though, but it didn't diminish the pleasure of watching this film.
