Reviews
"[...] the tortured gags with which" American Pie "idol Jason Biggs vies for the audience's favor would be a real reason for divorce."
"Pale romantic comedy, which mainly suffers from the fact that the actually quite good actors cannot develop contours due to the poorly developed script, in contrast to some more pointedly designed supporting roles."
“Even if Biggs and the enchanting Fisher in the lead roles try hesitantly and stumblingly to get to know each other, the film is gaining in charm. But only to come back to too little original staged and far too obvious jokes in the next scene. "
The German Film and Media Evaluation FBW in Wiesbaden awarded the film the title valuable.
