Men Seeking Women (1997)

Pretty Good

Memorable, crazy movie

A Disappointing Continuation

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

The only reason there is a 1 for this movie is because 0 was not an option. It was torture to sit through and where the script sounds like it was written by the kid who sat behind you in third grade and ate chalk. It dragged on so slowly and I had to keep checking my watch to see when the pain would stop. I love will ferrell, but this movie made me cringe where I was supposed to laugh. It seems at the end the writers realized none of it worked and even they couldn't stomach it, so they just ended it in the most absurd way possible. Do not rent it, it will bore you out of your mind and creep you out as well. The music was like a bad porn, and apparently they could not cast any woman under the age of 40 as a love interest. I can't get my hour and thirty-four minutes back, but please spare yourselves.

I bought the film because of Will Ferrell's picture on cover. I thought it would be more of a comedy than it really was. But the laughs weren't that plentiful. But the film is a real gem.Three friends looking for meaningful relationships, bite off more than they anticipate. Their motivated by a mutual bet benefiting the one that can achieve a relationship that includes at least 3 months "live together" time.Through their pursuits they learn about life, love and themselves.It's not what you might expect from a Will Ferrell film, but it really is a great film, and a must have DVD.

Truly one of the worst romantic comedies I've ever seen. I never even cracked a smile. A horrendously dull script without an original bone in its hole-filled body. This extremely poor and contrived piece of writing gave talented comedian Will Ferrall absolutely nothing to work with. The other actors performances are uninspired at best. The pacing is terrible, the direction, comedic timing is nonexistent. Its sad they make movies this lame. FINAL RATING: 1/10 - Of no value. Even my girlfriend (who is a hardcore romantic comedy fan) couldn't stand it. The dullest of the dull. Noob Aalox

If you think writing and directing comedy is easy, watch this movie. It gives one a new appreciation of how hard those crafts can be.Here, two accomplished comedic actors, Will Ferrell and Grant Shaud (Miles from "Murphy Brown") grimace their way through a painfully dull script. Despite being a Will Ferrell-worshipper, I did not laugh a single time.
