candyapplegrey This little independent film boasts an amicable and attractive cast and good intentions. Its premise is a little silly but basically sound. Jeana (the stunning-looking Estella Warren) is a virgin, and reveals this fact to current squeeze, TV presenter, Tom (Michael Weatherly, of NCIS), who accidentally broadcasts it to the nation. Disillusioned with her shallow beau and men in general, Jeana initially rejects sexy, down-to-earth photographer, Paul (Christian Kane, of Angel, Leverage). Anyway, cue much confusion during which Jeana fails to realise that Tom has split up with her, they attempt to reconcile and she starts to fall for Paul.The cast members (Christian Kane, in particular, proves hard to resist) do an excellent job and give their all but unfortunately, the material is too slight. It's entertaining enough but there are no real laugh-out loud moments although the director, according to crew/cast interviews, Charles Matthau (Walter Matthau's son – Jeana and Paul watch a Walter Matthau film in the course of the movie) is a very witty guy. This humour doesn't fully translate to the film. It was definitely watchable and occasionally charming.
Lissie23 i was just telling a friend about this movie. it's kinda hard to describe because there's never been anything else like it. It's a romantic comedy sure but there's so much more to it than that.I like how it digs deeper into characters lives. it's not just about sex or being in a relationship. They're looking for meaning cause they've all been hurt before.I think that we can all relate to that. even just looking at the opening montage, it makes me smile that she thinks that everything happens for a reason. I think that most of us believes that, that nothing is ever random but that it's this cosmic event.I think i'm like her in that sense because you want it to be more than just a hookup or a one night stand, you want it to mean something so much more. something transcendent.WOW, i ramble don't i? :D sorry, it's just it makes me glad that a movie like this is out there for the ones that still hope to have it all.
kirsten-t This movie has something for everyone. Rachel Dratch is outrageous. She cracked me up from the moment she came on the screen. Victoria Jackson said little, but it was the way she said it that made it so funny. Kathy Griffin is always good value and this role is no different. Her character loves her job a little too much. Fantastic cameo by Charles Matthau. Watching Michael Weatherly and Christian Kane is like watching the devil and the angel on someone's shoulder. You keep wondering which one is going to get their way. I sort of felt sorry for Tom. Even though he is egoistical and shallow, it was an innocent mistake blurting out his girlfriend's secret. The Walter Matthau line was a sweet tribute to a great actor. This movie was so much better than 40 year old virgin.
Ashley E Two of my friends and I watched Her Minor Thing together, and this will be our combined review. We are three college age students: one virgin, one lesbian, and one thirty-something...to get a drift of our different views.We all classified this as our new favorite 'chick flick'. Although HMT does follow the "romantic comedy formula", it's way different and more stronger than what we've seen from other films. We laughed, we clapped, we cried and got angry all in the span of two hours. HMT gives many emotions, and the music to match is fantastic. Most 'romantic comedies' don't give you the anger or stronger emotions, and HMT does the emotional roller-coaster seamlessly.Warren makes the role her own by portraying a soft yet strong woman; Weatherly brings in what the three of us pegged as a 'puppet-type shallowness, yet knows true romantic lines - we'll swoon for Tom anyway'. Griffin and Dratch fit into their roles like slipping on a pair of well-worn gloves; Kane seems footloose-and-fancy free.Rachel Dratch & Michael Weatherly stole the show is our impression, and MADE their roles; the responses in scenes got the exact fabulous facial expressions to go with them, their body language even. Some of our favorite laughs were what Caroline would say, or the look on Tom's face in reaction to the scenes.The location was also great - it felt like a bigger city, but not the biggest city. Also fabulous to note was the props in the scenes for each location – from photographs, posters and what the characters wore all made the film seem more real, and completed the characters background and feelings about their life.All of us loved the movie for different reasons at the end - from how the portrayals were (lesbians, firefighters, romantics) to the roller-coaster-ride of the emotions you feel when someone betrays you, to the reactions of many different people in knowing your a virgin. All in all, wonderful performances by the cast and a talented and emotional script by the Meyers. We are looking forward to more projects by the Meyers and Charles Matthau!
