Reception
The film has a 67% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on nine reviews.

Variety gave the film a positive review: "Film debut of writer-director Neil Turitz is a solid twentysomething romantic comedy. In covering well-trod territory, he manages a few twists..."

Stephen Holden of The New York Times gave the film a negative review and wrote, "the characters and situations are so utterly predictable that the movie has no sense of surprise. Instead of exploring its zanier possibilities, the movie takes it own setup far too seriously, and the humor rarely levitates."

Peter Travers of Rolling Stone gave the film a positive review and wrote, "Turitz keeps it comic and romantic in just the right doses. Looking for a fun date flick? You found it."

Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times also gave the film a positive review and wrote, "It is amazing how writer-director Neil Turitz, a seasoned journalist, has taken the familiar ingredients of the spiky New York dating game movie and made them seem so fresh and original, filled with individuals acutely detailed and compassionately observed."
