Plot: Former South Park writer and Win Ben Stein's Money sidekick Nancy Pimental makes her feature screenwriting debut with this relationship comedy. Cameron Diaz stars as Christina Walters, a jaded, club-hopping single woman in San Francisco who has given up trying to find the perfect mate to focus on Mr. Right Now. Her equally cynical friend, Courtney (Christina Applegate), a divorce attorney, shares much the same attitude, while their pal, Jane (Selma Blair), is more starry-eyed and naïve. Christina's attitude gets an unexpected makeover one evening at a nightclub when she meets Peter Donahue (Thomas Jane), a real estate agent she finds adorable and just about perfect. Unfortunately, Peter leaves and all Christina knows about him is that his brother, Roger (Jason Bateman), is getting married soon in their small hometown. Recognizing her friend's romantic distress, Courtney suggests they road trip to the wedding and Christina agrees, leading to encounters with a series of obstacles, including some funky leftovers, a filthy service station restroom, and a rather unpleasant revelation once the women arrive at the nuptials. The Sweetest Thing co-stars Parker Posey. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

Funny....for women

I saw this film on tv one day and I thought it was decent. Both Diaz and Applegate are beautiful and talented but I dont really watch chick flicks alot. It has some funny moments but from a guys view, its not that great.

Sluts go on a road trip!
Added 9/20/2008

This was one of the worst movies I've ever seen for all the reasons that other reviewers have mentioned -- toilet humor, raunchy innuendos, and women who act like juvenile ditzbrains. Perhaps the most unnerving thing about it is the attitudes presented by the female characters, that bumping nasties with strangers you meet in bars is something to keep you occupied until you finally find "the one." What a terrible message for young women. What a terrible message for men. That the film ended with a "true love" situation was perhaps the most unrealistic aspect of the film. In the real world, the hunky male character would have boinked Christina (Diaz) and called it a day. But he sure wouldn't have married a woman who acted like a stoned 15-year-old!

The Sweetest Thing

What a FUNNY movie!!!!!! Cameron Diaz and Christina Applegate along with Jason Batemon are just too hilarious in this movie. The movie is so light and fun, and you just love watching the situations that these two friends find themselves in. The humor isn't slapstick, it's just true and well written.

Hilarious and Raunchy Humor
Added 2/12/2008

This movie is definitely NOT a children's movie. . . I would consider this a "chick flick", but in NO way is this just a sappy, sweet, love-sick romantic movie. Oh no. . . Christina, Courtney and Jane are three best friends in San Francisco, but they could be any group of girls in any city.

There are "Hey! That's like US" moments all throughout the movie (yes, us girls do talk about guys' sizes and last night. . .). Even w/all the raunchy humor, the underlining message in the end can be that one can take a chance w/love and have a huge payoff (something to look forward to!).

Nancy Pimental is the writer - and w/Southpark under belt, you know that the humor of this movie will cater to guys as well as girls.
