Four guys hang out, kid one another, get into scuffles and flash their gonadal searchlight for available women. Yikes, haven't there been enough variations on the multiple-buddy movie? Actually, no.
Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine
Overview
Munch-Fals’ script follows Adam, who has so far been spoiled by life – a good job, a lovely wife, an expensive villa, an independent son – but still it isn’t good enough. Even the swinger weekend trips he has been taking with his wife have become a joyless routine, and his youthful optimism and appetite for life are distant memories. Then, one day, at another swingers’ club, he does what swingers don’t do – he falls in love.

A winningly confident snapshot of the nightlives of a bunch of young showbiz wannabes in a very upto-the-minute Hollywood.

Ninety minutes spent learning how not to pick up girls. This is what the movies were made for, isn't it?
Geoff Andrew, Time Out

Mr. Favreau wrote this screenplay with his real friends in mind. And the cast's camaraderie is appealingly clear.
Janet Maslin, New York Times

A guy film that gives you something to latch onto, that makes male bonding both believable and appealing.
