Three to Tango

source: Three to Tango

The only redeeming quality of this movie was the chemistry between Neve Campbell and Matthew Perry early in the movie. Especially Neve Campbell who gives probably her most enjoyable to watch performance watch yet. Other than that this movie falls flat on its face.

One of my all time favorite romantic comedies. Matthew Perry is hysterical, Neve Campbell is amazing, and Oliver Platt is the man! This movie has all the elements that make it the perfect romantic comedy, from the oh so funny twist, Matthew Perry is gay?, to the finale where everybody gets what they want. From all the Shakespeare classes I've taken, I've learned one thing to hold true: tragedies end in death and romantic comedies end in marriage. While they may not end up married, let's just say they modernized the Shakespearian qualities to better suit the romantic comedy.

I enjoyed Three to Tango because it was a good, funny and zany comedy that's not meant to be Oscar-worthy or even critics-worthy but it is a fun movie to watch nonetheless. I think Matthew Perry was excellent, he is as usual, funny and uses his comic timing skills with good force. Neve Campbell was charming but Dylan McDermott's character was ridiculously dull. There is no doubt that Perry was the full force of this movie and even though the director and editor could've done a better job editing and putting the film together, it is still worth watching in my opinion. It was fun to watch.

This hard-to-sit through movie tells a corny story of a straight guy (Matthew Perry) who, because of some misunderstandings, becomes publicly labeled as gay. In order for him and his partner (Oliver Platt)--who really is gay and not afraid to admit it--to get an important contract, he decides to go along with it, but after falling in love with his prospective boss's mistress (Neve Campbell), he has to second guess that decision. The girl is laboring under the misconception that he is, indeed, homosexual and considers him to be her best "girlfriend". The only credible acting was by Oliver Platt. Rated PG-13, we felt that it should have been R because of sexual dialogue.

I rented this movie because I love Matthew Perry. But even he couldn't save this. The script was bad; all the jokes fell completely flat, there was no character development at all ,and there wasn't really any explanation for why Neve Campbell liked either one of the guys since they never really talked and when they did it was about meaningless things.

leaving aside that the plot is VERY predictable, you end up falling in love with each of the characters. first of all, there's the insecure all to immature baby faced matthew perry, known to all as chandler bing from friends who plays the goofball who ends up keeping an eye on his hopefully soon to be boss's mistress, the ever charming and sincere Neve (amy) and falls in love with her after a really lousy night, it could have been perfect right there, but the problem here is, amy thinks dear oscar (perry) gay , to these two add oliver platt who plays oscar's gay friend/mentor and he'll manage to get a few good chucks out of you.

Despite occassional cleverness Three to Tango fails in it's attempts to mix romance and comedy. Definetly one of the hardest genres to do well the whole film usually lies on the actor at the centre of it all. In this case it's Mathew Perry and this is primarrilly why it fails. It boggles the mind why Warner continues to back this box office poision. Wasn't Fools Rush In warning enough! However the saving grace is Neve Campbell who lights up the screen with one flash of her smile and sparkling acting. She is definetly the next Julia Roberts because she has that unique infectious quality that you can't help that love. Romantic comedies definetly is Neve's future and whilst her roles in Scream, Wildthings and 54 have all been great it's this film that you truly fall in love with her. Grade; B-

I found myself laughing out loud at what might have been considered throw away lines. The actors did a great job of putting this light weight movie across and making it enjoyable to watch. Matthew Perry shows he is much more than a situation comedy actor and Neve Campbell is an actress who knows her business and is very easy on the eyes. The supporting cast were all very good and made a fun if not memorable movie. If you just want some laughs and aren't going to be critical of a weak story you'd enjoy this one.

One of the cutest movies ever and very funny! Matt Perry is the BEST ever, he's the cutest thing to watch on screen! And don't Matt Perry and Neve Campbell make the cutest couple!!?!?! I give this movie 10 out of 10 as it so richly deserves
