The Sweetest Thing Reviews

oh dear.

This is possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. It fails to work on any level, is self-conscious through out (well I assume it is, I confess that I made the decision not to waste to much of my life by watching all of it) and contains some of the worst moments in cinematic history yet perpetrated by the hand of man. Notably 'the penis song' which had me watching in open-mouthed disbelief as to how they persuaded any of those involved to participate. If ever when I am old and alone, down and out and destitute, I begin to feel the chill of winters frosty hand icing my blood I will merely need to remember 'the penis song' and the warm glow of empathetic embarrassment will render me instantly toasty and warm till comes the spring. It has invaded my head and drowns out the cheerful chirrup of the little birds in the trees, the laughter of happy children and for all I know the frantic horn blowing of cars speeding out of control in my general direction.

It is not good. The only reason to rent this movie (for god?s sake do not purchase it) is to witness for yourself its general poorness and perhaps regale people at parties with amusing accounts of its witlessness. As I now intend to do for the rest of my days. Should you choose to watch it remember to check out the bizarre directors commentary where the director and 'stars' sit around with whoopee cushions, prattling happily about their offering as perhaps a toddler might on having produced its first stool without the aid of adult supervision. You will probably not be able to take a great deal of it, but providing you have been primed with strong drink before hand you are unlikely to suffer long term film aversion.

this is bad beyond words, a good cast was put together but someone must of hired a 5 year old to write the script and let the actors direct themselves. horribly cringeworthly bad.

Not the sweetest thing

This is the only movie where the average star rating has let me down - what an awful movie. I can only imagine that this movie appeals to kids in their teems, it is definitely not an adult movie. The plot is all but non existent and the director seems to have a penis joke obsession, almost cringeable in several places.

Funny in places - but mainly purile and pointless film

I came to write this review after seeing a prompt to and I thought to myself - I don't even REMEMBER watching this film.

Then I paused, and then I remembered it and I wished I hadn't. Oh yes, I thought, that 'trying to be American Pie with attractive actresses in it' film, the one with a random musical singing and dancing about penises moment just thrown in for no reason whatsoever. And that pretty much sums it up. It's a film with little plot nor purpose with some really weird choices/'jokes' included for seemingly little reason (except to be odd for oddities sake). I know quite a lot of the 'Teen comedies' do this successfully but in this movie they particularly miss the mark. So, unless you _really_ fancy Cameron Dias I would give this one a miss.

One start

This was a very poor film - the only reason it has one star is that's the minimum I could give it.

On verge of suicide....

After watching this film... This is without doubt the worst film I have ever seen bar none. It does not work work on any level and the only reason you could have to rent it out would be to find out for yourself how bad it really is!

Romantic feel-good chick flick

sweet feeling - warm & fuzzy - it's ok for a bit of light entertainment. Think its targeted at girls though

the worst film ever

i'm the perfect target male 25, love this kind of movie and camern diaz, but maaaaann it's bad! the acting is awful, the jokes ridiculous, no story. After 5 minutes you have just your eyes to cry on how bad this movie is.

Awful. This is the battlefield earth of chick movie. Not even worth watching. You will really feel like you lost 1h30 of you life. To summarize: a solid s**t!

Reasonable. I have to say that the movie started very well, and we enjoyed the start.....then.....they proceeded to have a sing-a-long like a musical, about the male anatomy..none-the-less. At this stage I was a little bewildered. However, if you like comedy such as this, then this movie is for you. I think you just have to see it to know what I mean about the sing along...oh and Cameron Diaz gets poked in the eye with a w...y

This movie is awful! Although Cameron Diaz is very beautiful her character is an absolute trollop and so are both her friends. It tries so hard to be a sexy, ballsy, women on top type movie but just succeeds in making the lead charcters look like idiots. If you do rent it (more fool you for one) but make sure you watch out for the completely out of place musical number in the middle. So awful that the pure horror will be stuck in your head forever! AVOID!
