In the past decade there have been a string of movies trying to define dating and relationships in the 90s. Chalk it under America's preoccupation with compartmentalizing trends and pop culture in easy to file time periods. The "turbulent 60's", the 70's "me decade", the "Reagan 80's." What do we do with the 90s? This movie thinks it has the answer. Apparently, the genders are at war and sex is something that happens after consuming copious amounts of alcohol. Lots of post-feminist feminist angst and confused males struggling to exhibit an aggressive attitude within the confines of the female-dictated political correctness. Welcome to the "cynical 90s." Now aren't you glad they're over?

Yes this does deliver and serves up cliches. But it also shines a light on some important issues. You may say that it shies away to give us something that we can grab onto. But it is always a matter of perspective. And it also can be something that is or can be called a burden.

Quite a few actors you may have seen since then. Some of them were not as known when they did this - therefor you may be surprised by at least one of them appearing naked in this. Especially considering how she was vocal about not appearing nude in anything ever since. Maybe this movie did the trick to her - in a negative way.

But again, this is about gender issues, about sexuality, about how we present ourselves and how much down the rabbit hole we can go. There is a need to talk to each other - a curious gem from the 90s that I reckon can be called woke nowadays ... to a degree. Because it still has things that you probably would not see today ... especially certain ambiguities.
