Funny - Don't watch it w/ your wife...
This was a good movie. My wife and I watched it together. She kept quizzing me on the premise of the movie - even though we have a great marriage and I've never even though of cheating. She was smiling so I think it's no big deal.
As for the characters, you'll hate Jonathan Silverman's wife! The chick from the hockey game looks to have real breasts! What a novel idea in Hollywood! OK nudity - let's face it, that's why you're reading this, looking for the scoop on the skin. Not much from the main characters, though. You do see Amy Yasbek in a see through purple top. Not great but hey, better than nothing.
Worth a rent. It's funny.

Fun!
Enjoyable, funny film that didn't drag! No really intricate plot or especially deep characters but there are times when you want to watch a film like that and other times when you want to just sit back and enjoy a film without having to really think about it or keep track of a complex storyline. That said - the film deals funnily with issues of trust, monogamy and, of course, sex.
Very funny performance by Jason Alexander - different character in many ways from Seinfeld's George - he has some of the best lines and the best laughs.
Overall - a fun little film

Boring Movie With One Redeeming Factor
This is your typical 30-ish "relationships are funny, aren't men pigs" type of film. It wouldn't even be worth my commenting on it except for its one saving grace: the topless sex scene of one Hudson Leick! If you don't know of her, her most famous role to date was that of Callisto on the TV series Xena. Well this is her in all of her topless glory! She's only in the movie for ten minutes or so, but since the movie sucks anyway, you might want to just fast-forward to the sex scene. Her breasts are beautiful. She is beautiful. There are other beautiful women in the movie (Leah Lail, Christine Taylor, Angie Everhart, and I GUESS I'll include Amy Yasbeck), but Hudson is the only one who gets nekked and I love her for it! Like I said, the movie blows except for seeing Hudson topless. Jason Alexander, Jonathan Silverman, old worn-out jokes about men being insecure about their penises and their sex lives in general. It's all just so lame. If you're a guy and you watch this for any other reason than Hudson Leick's boobs, I'd like to punch you in the stomach for it. Oh yeah, one last thing: that dude from "The Nanny" TV show is in it too. GAG If that doesn't show you it's a stinker, then I don't know what will!
Something about relationships...
...but I can't exactly remember what. When a film purports to have a philosophical viewpoint on sex, relationships, fidelity and especially on how they each involve and relate to women, and ten minutes after the thing ends you can't remember what that viewpoint was, is this a good indicator of how well it got its points across? Yes. It is.
Individual scenes worked well enough with a succession of portrayals of seemingly functioning relationships slowly showing cracks of dissatisfaction, but this is the best part of the movie. The cast of mostly TV actors is good, but the overall sociological ideas (as promulgated by Seinfeld's Jason Alexander) are weak and poorly focused, beyond that which is obvious or trite. The look of the film is good enough indicating efficient use of a middling production budget, but there are no grander cinematic ambitions here, no attempts to build up the script's ideas using the cinematic landscape. The landscape is just a background for the characters. It's not boring, exactly, and those in a mood for a relationship comedy won't hate it, exactly. They just won't get anything more out of it than they would a two inch column in Cosmo.

Comical, but sexually controversial
I have seen the film. Yes, it is very funny. But I also found it degrading to certain actors' professional ability in TV and in movies. This particular actor is much better off in family-type movies. Other than that it makes one think whether or not monogamy is for them. It is a delicate, controversial issue.
