“Kudos to writer/director/star Danny Comden for this unique look at modern day dating, and the hidden aspects to male vanity.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBalthazar Getty, as an anti-hero of sorts, portrays slacker Sol Goode, whou0026#39;s world gets thrown into upheaval when his cousin Happy(Schaech) visits. Sol is a struggling actor who continuously gets refused audition after audition, yet Happy lands a gig on his first try. Youu0026#39;ll bust a gut when you find out why Schaechu0026#39;s character is called Happy.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSol begins to re-evaluate his life when he canu0026#39;t pay the rent, and canu0026#39;t come to terms with his love for his best friend Chloe, well played by Katharine Towne.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDanny Comden gets the most out of his cast, as Getty, Cheri Oteri and Towne were all brilliant. Surprisingly enough, Jamie Kennedy handled his role well also. Danny Comden, as the identity challenged Cooper, proved to be a solid actor as well.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSeveral solid cameos by Jared Leto, who was a riot, and one of Americau0026#39;s favorite sex symbols, Carmen Electra. The only thing I didnu0026#39;t like about this film was the presence of non-actress Tori Spelling. Other than that, this is a canu0026#39;t miss comedy.”
