5.0 out of 5 stars Because of a song
The main reason i loved the unrated verson was b/c of the song that they sing in the Chinese restarunt about a certain part of the male anatomy.....it's histerical...i laugh so hard everytime i see it....anyone who hasn't seen this movie has no clue as to what they are missing

1.0 out of 5 stars Just plain awful
I guess by now I though most people would be tired of the same old stupid plot encapsulated in a stupid comedy. This movie is a perfect example of how Hollywood can simply put out a piece of junk, tell the public it's good, and the public will buy into it. I haven't been this dissapointed in a movie in quite a while. No imagination, no real plot, just a bunch of low...

5.0 out of 5 stars funny as hell, Mar 20 2004
By 
This review is from: The Sweetest Thing (Unrated) (DVD)
If you want to watch a funny, no, hilarious movie with romance, get this. Though less romance and more funny, this romance-comedy has everything. 3 actresses that are top notch and a 2 great male actors (even though one hardly gets any time!) Christina Applegate puts on the best performance, Cameron Diaz shines and Selma Blair is funny as hell. The jokes are a little on the dirty side and the unrated version even has more of it but it's one hell of a movie. Watch it with your friends for a good laugh and a good movie. My all time favourite romance-comedy.

I guess by now I though most people would be tired of the same old stupid plot encapsulated in a stupid comedy. This movie is a perfect example of how Hollywood can simply put out a piece of junk, tell the public it's good, and the public will buy into it. I haven't been this dissapointed in a movie in quite a while. No imagination, no real plot, just a bunch of low grade light porn moments. Having Cameron Diaz parade around in her bra and underwear just for the sake of all the guys with a crush on her is, unfortunately, enough to sell a movie. If you like stupid, unwhitty, grotesque humor, this one is for you, otherwise, keep looking.

1.0 out of 5 stars Why can't they make a decent romantic comedy?, July 18 2004
By 
Victoria (Honolulu, Hawaii) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sweetest Thing (Unrated) (DVD)
Another idiotic, so called "romantic comedy". Basically the story includes Cameron Diaz(who can't act if her life depended on it but still has fame and twenty million per movie) and Christina Applegate acting like fools in pursuit of some guy, convinced that he is the one. There are plenty of jokes and gags follow that supposed to be hilarious and aren't. Granted, some movies are stupid but funny. This one doesn't even come close-its simply dull, ridiculous story that doesn't evoke any emotion in you and you definitely don't give a damn about any of these characters

1.0 out of 5 stars Turning it off..., Jun 5 2004
By 
Robert Graves (Thompson Station, TN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sweetest Thing (Unrated) (DVD)
I feel compelled to write a review for this unspeakably awful offense on humankind, especially after reading four and five star reviews of it. If this has come to be quality entertainment in this country then we have sunk lower than my worst fears. It's not the crude humor - I like everything from South Park to Old School. It's the unbelievably awful screenwriting and tired, hackneyed humor that permeates this 90-minute disaster, most of which leaves you in a stunned embarrassed silence.

Who is this film supposed to be for? Women? I surely hope not. Most women I know do not enjoy seeing their gender portrayed as the brainless, horny airheads that populate this debacle. Is it for men? Dear God no. I think I speak for all of us when I say that men do not enjoy watching attractive women act like twelve-year-old boys. Is it for kids? Absolutely not, given the sexual lewdness throughout. There's nothing wrong with sexual lewdness in itself, as long as it has a morsel of comedic value and possibly contributes to the plot or characters in at least an indirect way.

But with "The Sweetest Thing" discussing things like plot and characters is like arguing about the arrangement of the deck chairs on the Titanic. Instead, let's discuss the film on it's own level, something that would make sense within it's context and to the cinematic connoisseurs that seemed to enjoy it - we'll just play a simple game.

The rules are simple, and the first two are the hardest - you have to watch at least fifteen minutes of it, and you have to get someone else to do it with you. There. The rest is all downhill. Just count the number of times each of you says one of the following: "Oh my God," "How did this get made?", "Did the actors read the script before they agreed?", "*Was* there a script?", "How do big stars do movies like this?", "I feel insulted," "Do people really think women act like this in private?" and lastly, "This may be the worst movie I've ever seen, definitely top five."

If you reach ten, congratulations, you win. You can stop watching, a prize worth fighting for.

5.0 out of 5 stars The female version of 'American Pie', April 21 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Sweetest Thing (Unrated) (DVD)
This movie is a combination of 'Bridget Jones Diary' and 'American Pie'. It's partly a romantic comedy, but there's some sight gags and semi-crass humor involved as well. I found it to be very funny, but if you don't like this kind of humor then you probably won't enjoy this movie. Cameron Diaz and Christina Applegate are perfect onscreen together, totally believable as best friends.

1.0 out of 5 stars 2 hours that I'll never get back from my life, April 12 2004
This review is from: The Sweetest Thing (Unrated) (DVD)
Cameron Diaz is a very weird actress, because she can do good choices (like "gangs of new york" or "being John Malkovich") and then you see her in this idiotic so called movie! It's simply not funny, it's just a sorry excuse to show cameron diaz and christina applegate in bikinis...

2.0 out of 5 stars It is so bad it is just bad., Mar 19 2004
This review is from: The Sweetest Thing (Unrated) (DVD)
This movie tries so hard to be outrageous and funny, it is just bad. I usually enjoy raunchy humor (ex.There's Something about Mary, American Pie) but this was just stupid. Occasionally it might make you smile a little and leads you to believe it may get better, but it never does. It just doesn't work and they try to throw in so many wild scenes that it just pulls you out of the movie. The only reason I didn't give it one star is because I did somewhat enjoy a couple of scenes and it had somewhat of a plot-although it did veer from it quite often. I would definately recommend not spending any money on this movie. If you want to see it borrow it from someone or check your cable stations.
