Terrible movie!!!

How could people like this movie? It was so boring with no laugh out loud moments or even a smile. I like Simon Baker and am glad to see his success in The Mentalist but this sucked.

It kept going on and on and you know you will have to go through all 101 girls to find out what happens to him- it took too long to care.

It had a little twist ending but it did not save this mess. The one thing I did like seeing was Mindy Cohn again-I hope Hollywood will take notice and put her in more movies-she is more than Natalie on the Facts of Life!

2 out of 10.

It was predictable in many parts--but not all--it dragged at points and although Patton Oswalt was funny, everyone else just kinda phoned it in comedy-wise.

But any movie that has a busload of schoolgirls raping a helpless man gets at least a 5 in my book.

Loved this movie.

One laugh out loud moment for me was when he made eye contact with the hottie on the street, then looked at her ID, read the name, lost interest, flipped it to her and walked off.

I watched Heathers yesterday, and felt like another Winona movie & found this on tv; not knowing both films were written by the same guy. Couldn't really tell either - Heathers was sharp & had memorable dialogue and although it's not fair to compare the two - 101 wasn't funny or very interesting and definetly not memorable. Coulda done w/o all those scenes in the white room w/ those guys & the computer thing. Also some of the things that happened were obvious as to what was going to happen - the centerfold & grandma C incident, the ending. Seemed to take forever to get to the end too.....or get to the point, which what that was, I'm not sure.

At first the ending seemed dark & interesting, feeding eachother the pills and her having written "The End" in paint on the wall. But just when the movie looked like it was going to have some balls & actually be something different, it turned into cornball mush at the end - picnicing in front of thier huge beautiful house together & living happily ever after, and all the scumbags wake up from their comas. Not every movie has to have a cute-sy saccharine happy ending, and I was hoping this wouldn't be like all the rest, but when it came down to it, it was.

Just watched it. Thought it was cute, different and funny. Figured out the ending, but still was an enjoyable movie.

I liked this movie. it had an interesting premise, and although you could easily deduce the end, it still had some funny moments in it. Some of my favorites were [spoilers]when he saw the women down the street he made eye contact with and saw her name and kept walking, when he kept screaming at everything he touched after fvcking granny Rose, him about to become a necrophiliac, and then finding Dr. Mirabella Stone & patting her on the ass[/spoilers] lol. I also enjoyed the message the Director/writer was trying to address, and though not terribly well thought out, at least it's better than the standard filler we get in normal comedies.

There's more to a movie than its ending. Actually, for many of us the ending tends to be the least interesting part.
