Customer Reviews: A bit different, but very funny October 7, 2009 F. Lee (UK) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful I really enjoyed this film and laughed out loud in several places. OK, it's not for everyone. If you're offended by the odd crude joke, it's probably not for you. But I found it refreshingly different and very funny. Simon Baker puts in another great performance - if you're a fan you will want to watch this one. He gets a lot of quality screen time, and you get to see a bit more of the Baker body than usual - he's got a really cute bum! Odd, wicked and very cool August 10, 2009 sp (Glasgow, UK) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful A strange comedy. Written by the same guy who wrote the successful Heathers and the terrible Hudson Hawk, this is a film about a successful businessman, Roderick Blank (Simon Baker) who has it all and who receives an anonymous email with a list of 101 womens' names. He discovers he has slept with the first 29 on the list and the rest are women he will sleep with. He dumps his fiancee and proceeds to seek out the others on the list and do the deed. As an aside, Winona Ryder plays Death Nell who sleeps with random men and puts them into a coma. She is the last on list and when Roderick finds this out, he prepares to meet his fate. br / br /This is sometimes jaw dropping. You will find yourself bursting out laughing despite yourself. It does have a rather cheap quality to the filming and is overly long but the main characters do a good job. If you're only viewing of Simon Baker is as The Mentalist, then prepare to be shocked. However, how Winona Ryder continues to get work is one of life's mysteries. Very funny, very strange November 20, 2009 Doodler (Scotland) This comedy is very very funny in parts, but also quite strange. The premise is obviously pretty silly : a computer sends this bloke a list of all the women he has ever, and will ever, have sex with. He proceeds to work his way through the list. There are some very funny moments. The film is over long, the ending is trite and underwritten, and you probably wouldn't want your aged grandma to see it (for more than one reason !), but if you are looking for a comedy with Simon Baker in it, it is worth seeing. I don't think Ryder is as bad as some other reviewers represent, she is fairly convincing as Death Nell, but there is a lack of chemistry between her and Simon Baker. This again, could be down to the writing of the end piece, which is less than convincing.
