Kaley Cuoco was my main reason for being interested in this movie, even when it looked like a failure. She gives a great performance and is of course quite good-looking, especially in a tank top or shorts or both, or nothing but a man's dress shirt. She wears a spaghetti-strap top in one scene. But she has such a great personality. I won't say her looks don't matter because they are important to the plot, but they're not that necessary. And she's great with Henry, but not all that romantic. She wears glasses to read, but while I wasn't crazy about her first pair, her second pair look worse. No, in the photo representing the movie on IMDb, she's wearing a pair she tried but didn't like.
Dennis Farina once again reminds us how much we have lost. He's not a particularly likable character, but one we can love to hate. John K. Butzin (who, like Ed LaSalle, the most memorable character in a Mary Tyler Moore sitcom I can't remember the name of, uses his full name when talking about himself) , is quite annoying but still a pleasure to watch somehow. His misfortunes are hilarious, helped along by Tricia Helfer.
William is annoying and I don't mean that in a good way.
Teri Polo and I have a history. Her character in "Northern Exposure" was so unpleasant I all but quit watching the show. That's how bad it had gotten. And she's just as terrible here, at least to me. In the first scene she has pretty hair but not a pretty face. Later, with more makeup, she's somewhat good-looking. But her personality is really hard to take. She does have some good scenes that even I couldn't criticize. I believe people will like her. Just not me.
Chris Klein is someone you want to root for, but watching his difficulties is actually kind of fun. He's pleasant enough.
I was going to say the actress has one line but makes the most of it, but she actually has many more lines later and shows that she was capable of more.
Overall, it was pretty good.
