She is refreshingly understanding and non-jealous about Cook's rather unusual malady. Jessica Alba's character is sweet, funny, and believable in the progression of her relationship with Cook. When he meets the "love of his life", he ignores all of her quite significant flaws and pursues her vigorously. He tries to help people, but certainly doesn't turn down sex with attractive women when it is, quite literally, thrown at him. Dane Cook's character is a good person, in a realistic non-Hollywood sort of way. All of the characters are good-natured and fun, and display realistic responses and a great deal of humanity in reacting to an unusual and very funny situation. The movie is funny, cute, sexy, fast paced, and never takes itself too seriously. Well, I can tell you that I and my girlfriend both have postgraduate degrees, and both of us loved it. I personally cannot think of any higher praise for a movie.Other IMDb reviewers stated that the only people who would like this movie are college frat boys who want to see "boobies".
An oft repeated line I found in reviews was that "this movie is much closer to Caligula than Sleepless in Seattle". Nonetheless, virtually all reviewers seem to decry that this movie refused to take out all the "smut" and revert itself into another in a line of bland and lifeless romantic comedies. I generally do not care for, as they tend to be sappy, depressing, and just generally boring.
