Ryan and Jennifer are opposites who definitely do not attract. At least that's what they always believed. When they met as twelve-year-olds, they disliked one another. When they met again as teenagers, they loathed each other. But when they meet in college, the uptight Ryan and the free-spirited Jennifer find that their differences bind them together and a rare friendship develops.

Fantastic!

ClassyWas

Excellent, smart action film.

CrawlerChunky

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

TrueHello

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

The year after American Pie, both Jason Biggs and Alyson Hannigan signed on for the worst script either of them had ever read. My guess is that they had absolutely no better offers that year, because this is a pretty cynical cash-grab. Its just falls flat in every way. They both play minor characters, which further adds to my theory that this film was a preexisting "make lovers from friends" script featuring Forlani and Prinze Jr's characters that was forced into the old pie-tin once American Pie became a huge hit. The acting is stilted, the dialogue is horrid, Claire Forlani is miscast as anything but an ice queen and Prinze and Biggs seem like they did a last minute switcheroo in an attempt for both to play against type, but Biggs can't play confident and Prinze is too good looking to be believably shy. I've seen worse movies, but I strongly recommend you don't see this one.its just not good in any way.

Jennifer Burrows (Claire Forlani) and Ryan Walker (Freddie Prinze Jr.) first time meet on a flight to LA as kids. Four years later, they both go to the same high school. She's the home coming queen and a free spirit. He's the lowly geeky mascot. Then at Berkeley, he's the geeky guy with high school girlfriend Betty (Alyson Hannigan) who's going away to Seattle. He has a roommate (Jason Biggs), and runs into Jennifer again who gets dumped by her committed boyfriend.What's with Jason Biggs' hair? Forlani's character is wildly inconsistent. Her persona is a little more serious than this free spirit character. Freddie is not the geeky boy type. They're both miscast for their roles. There isn't anything undeniably wrong with this movie, but it just doesn't have the charm. It doesn't have any comedy either.

The plot of Boys and Girls is simple. A boy and a girl (Freddie Prinze, Jr and Claire Forlani), who at first seem a most unlikely couple, gradually discover their similarities. To me, the film gets off to a slightly slow start, but becomes increasingly watchable as it progresses. The plot is similar to that of When Harry Met Sally, but the style of the film is totally different. It's essentially a teen movie in the vein of Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. But it matches up to other teen movies well and offers some good laughs (mainly from Jason Biggs as the womanising, compulsive liar of a room-mate). For anyone interested in the technicalities of film-making, the final scene in which the plane takes off is very smartly edited, too. In summary, if you like teen movies you'll enjoy this, otherwise you'll hate it.

This movie is a great movie. This movie is one of my friend's life story. We believe that all the events that happened in this movie will happen to her in real life. Even though some of the parts are twisted they still will happen. We love the part where they are in the club and all that whipped cream splashes them. My friend least likes the part where Jennifer and Ryan end up getting it on and they do that you know. So it creeps her out but still we love it. I think that everyone should watch this movie. It will make you laugh like crazy and it will make you think of loving somebody in a new light. Bottom line story of my friends life!
