Gil Noble (Chris Klein) has it all - great job, great bank account, and a great girl, Jo (Heather Graham). In fact, Jo`s the girl of his dreams, and to make double-sure of his luck, he`s just about to tie the knot! But the wheel of fortune has a nasty habit of turning when you least expect it, and Gil`s career and love-life come crashing to the ground... when a private detective reveals Jo could be his sister!! A year on, once the truth`s been uncovered, Gil`s determined to get Jo back. But there`s just one snag... she`s marrying someone else! Her wealthy fiancé, not to mention her social-climbing mother-in-law are not about to let Gil come back and ruin it all.

Your Opinions and Comments

6 / 10
A rude, dumb and not funny at all comedy wannabe with Kein and Graham as two lovers who discover they are actually brother and sister. Ouch... .
The video transfer is very good. There are no visible compression signs and the image is clear of any defects. The movie includes several impressive scenes of the great American outdoors.
The DD 5.1 soundtrack is ok. The surrounds are used occasionally for some sound effects and music.
The menus are still with music.
The extras include a commentary by the director and lead actor (which is rather good, considering the movie), a behind the scenes featurette and 6 deleted scenes (including an alternate ending, which is much nicer than the original one).
Bottom line - a dumb and sort of useless movie with only 2-3 semi-funny gags. Give it a miss.
