Product Description:
Where can a girl who is usually the heartbreaker find the perfect guy? For Christina Walters (Cameron Diaz) the answer is the San Francisco nightclub where she meets Peter Donahue (Thomas Jane). Unfortunately their meeting is fleeting and this quintessential hip party girl is left in unfamiliar territory--smitten by a total stranger. Determined to see her best friend happy Courtney Rockliffe (Christina Applegate) takes Christina on a road trip to Peter's sleepy California hometown in search of the man of her dreams. In the meantime Christina's roommate the just-dumped Jane Burns (Selma Blair) engages in her own lusty pursuits. Diaz and Applegate have great chemistry and are utterly believable as best friends. The script by Nancy M. Pimental who wrote for South Park blends raunchy humor and sentimentality both of which are complimented by a healthy dose of sight gags. Directed by Roger Kumble (CRUEL INTENTIONS) THE SWEETEST THING is an amusing--albeit somewhat crude--look at what people will do for love. The film also features Jason Bateman in fine form as Peter's brother indie queen Parker Posey as a bride-to-be and a brief appearance by Applegate's real-life husband actor Jonathan Schaech.System Requirements:Running Time 90 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY Rating: Unknown UPC: 043396095908 Manufacturer No: 09590

Prudes, beware! Despite its tendency to take the comedic low road, The Sweetest Thing is a near-perfect product of the new-millennial Hollywood. That's a backhanded compliment, but as a fun-loving Yankee girl's answer to Bridget Jones's Diary, the mainstream pandering of Nancy Pimental's lucrative screenplay is undeniably effective. On the opening soundtrack, Macy Gray's "Sexual Revolution" is a perfect accompaniment to gyrating guy-dumper Christina (Cameron Diaz), whose fear of commitment is tested when she meets Peter (Thomas Jane) and knows he's Mr. Right. With supportive gal-pals Courtney (Christina Applegate) and Jane (Selma Blair), she plots to snag the guy, and the movie's road-trip detour mines gut-busting gold from gags involving incriminating dress stains, oral sex, rotting food, garish clothing, and the simple joys of old-fashioned romance. Perfectly cast, raucously ribald, and conventionally charming, The Sweetest Thing is a schizophrenic comedy, but its dual personalities are irresistibly in synch. --Jeff Shannon

I saw this film on tv one day and I thought it was decent. Both Diaz and Applegate are beautiful and talented but I dont really watch chick flicks alot. It has some funny moments but from a guys view, its not that great.

This was one of the worst movies I've ever seen for all the reasons that other reviewers have mentioned -- toilet humor, raunchy innuendos, and women who act like juvenile ditzbrains. Perhaps the most unnerving thing about it is the attitudes presented by the female characters, that bumping nasties with strangers you meet in bars is something to keep you occupied until you finally find "the one." What a terrible message for young women. What a terrible message for men. That the film ended with ... Read More

The Sweetest Thing
What a FUNNY movie!!!!!! Cameron Diaz and Christina Applegate along with Jason Batemon are just too hilarious in this movie. The movie is so light and fun, and you just love watching the situations that these two friends find themselves in. The humor isn't slapstick, it's just true and well written.

This movie is definitely NOT a children's movie. . . I would consider this a "chick flick", but in NO way is this just a sappy, sweet, love-sick romantic movie. Oh no. . . Christina, Courtney and Jane are three best friends in San Francisco, but they could be any group of girls in any city.
There are "Hey! That's like US" moments all throughout the movie (yes, us girls do talk about guys' sizes and last night. . .). Even w/all the raunchy humor, the underlining message in the end can ... Read More
