At first, I was annoyed with Phil Joanu's direction of this film. I thought "Oh, no" when I first saw the narration style breaking the fourth wall, used as a framing device. But it sort of grew on me. Don't get me wrong, there were still times when it was badly overdone, such as the cat scene, but overall it actually worked. Stephen Dorff pulled off the role of an annoying film director of extremely average appearance, who yet has beautiful women throwing themselves at him. (Nice fantasy) I thought Judith Godreche was very good, and very pretty. And special kudos to Kelly MacDonald in a medium-to-small part. I ended up liking the film, when I very much did not expect to.
