I liked the characters as well as the actors. It was a fun movie, I thought it far fetched in a lot of areas but the actors I think made the movie fun with with their portrayals.Monica Potter is a great alternative to the love story objects of affection, such as Ashley Judd,(who I do Love) and Julia Roberts. They are approaching the age where they can take on more intense roles, and then who does that leave us? Brittany Speers or Lyndsay Lohan, "YUCK" to them both. I hope to see more of her in future films. I loved the song at the end,"Roller Coaster" but I can't find it anywhere, could some one please post where I can get the sound track or the album with that song.

Amanda (Monica Potter) is an art restorer for a New York City museum. Needing a new apartment with a miniscule rent, she finds a tiny room. It is located in the spacious apartment of four supermodels! Amanda gets the large closet. When a good-looking man (Freddie Prinze, Jr.) moves into an apartment nearby, the models encourage Amanda to express an interest in him. However, Mandy thinks she sees him commit a murder! What's happening?Monica Potter is so lovely and charming in this film, one wishes she had a better vehicle. The plot is okay but takes a long time to develop. However, the costumes and sets are great and Prinze and the models make wonderful eye candy, too. One could do worse than spend an afternoon with all of these attractive folks. Recommended as an alternate choice for those who have laughed and cried through two dozen other romantic comedies with mild suspense.

This movie is severely under rated. The reason for this being too many people were watching it expecting another "generic chick flick." Despite what bias persons will tell you, the direction and acting of this movie were superb. It is not an average "chick flick," and in the mass of these films in the 90's this is simply the best of them. I saw this movie from an honest point of view. What I determined was this, the quality was unparalleled, the direction was superb in the way the cameras were positioned and moved, and the acting was amazing. The most important part of this, as is in all movies, IS THE STORY! This some people do not seem to understand. However I HIGHLY recommend this movies to both men and women alike. Watch this with an open mind, and it will become a truly exciting and thrilling cinematic experience for the viewer. I strongly urge all to at least give this cinematic achievement a simple viewing.

Unfortunately this movie didn't do well when it came out, possibly because people didn't think Freddie Prinze, Jr was someone who knew how to pick his parts. Who could blame them, with movies like Boys and Girls to his name. However, I found this movie to be very entertaining. I still find myself laughing whenever I watch it again. The only problem with this movie is that the writers spent more time and creative juices on the jokes than the actual plot and the movie goes downhill after Monica Potter and Freddie Prinze, Jr have sex. Bottomline, if you're in dire need of a good laugh this is a good movie to see. If you want something more substantial, watch an Ed Norton flick.
