Warning: may contain some spoilers.
While I was sitting through the first ten minutes of this film, I was stupified. The dialogue was terrible and even some of the acting was flat and embarassing. And the last ten minutes of the film unfolds like any other romantic comedy. And that made it disappointing. But the rest of the film was very funny and the stars were charming and likable and when I left the theater I was glad I saw the film. You can attribute that to the the charm of Perry and Campbell and of course Platt's presence was quite nice as well. He always makes me laugh whether he is in a campy, cheesy film like Lake Placid, an all out comedic role like Three Musketeers or in a somewhat serious film like Flatliners. There is just something about him that does it, he has an incredible sense of timing and his delivery is so true and honest that you never really think of him as Oliver Platt, he is the character that he plays, in every movie.
Besides the film being funny it is also quite the statement about homosexuality. But the true strength of the film is Perry and Campbell both Canadians I might add ). They are funny, observant and they have some humourous lines about movies that comes into play rather nicely at the end of the film. The fact that Neve thinks Perry is gay enables us to hear many great observations about dating and relationships from a woman's point of view and I enjoyed that. I, myself find women to be an enigma and perhaps I will never understand them so I have to rely on movies to give me some of the answers. This one does an admirable job of breaking down the way they think at times and I found some of those observations interesting and others hilarious. And yes, by the end of the film I wanted these two people to get together. So I was glad they did, that is not a spoiler, you know they have to get together by the end of this film or it is not a romantic comedy.
For a good time and money well spent on a light hearted movie that is funny and will make you grin as you leave the theater, then Three To Tango is good entertainment. You should give this a chance.
