I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

This movie is my favorite. It has so many truths and is hilarious. I recommend to any guy. It helps explain relationships. It also faces everyday problems with dating and finding the one. A must see for anyone between the ages of 20 - 40. Has some great characters kind of like Tomcats. The guy from Office Space, and others. If you like comedies you will love this movie. THere are a lot of one liners too that are very funny. Ryan Renolds is great too. I like how they explain dating problems and finding "the one". THe movie flows very well especially when Ryan thinks he is gay!lol and the flashbacks at the airport.

Great comedy.Without being cliché like "scary movie" which the motto is to lampoon other movies features all the time!!! Also what I found interesting is the comic way the movie speaks about love.There was also a David (Jerry O'Connell)'s quote that called my attention which is something like this: "The worst thing is not to live a life time alone expecting the write woman to marry, but marry the wrong woman and spend the rest of your life with her" Almost every woman in this movie is gorgeous, so if one of them feel curious to know me just contact me by my e-mail. Eventually it is an a good and funny romantic comedy to enjoy.

This film just blows my mind. It is a great little movie, it really is, but more so it blows my mind because of how undeniably true to life some parts and dialog really are. David's voice-overs are so touching, and genuine to real human emotion, I just cannot believe it. Much of the reason I am in love with this movie now is because I am in love with a girl, and she is in love with me, but we have obstacles, much like the characters in this film. Indiretly, but underneath, this film has a GREAT message about love and finding it, and not just finding love, but making it work. David says in this movie, "there is no one true love, but just a LOT of potential true loves"... and until I watched this film(for the first time in about a year), I never ever agreed with that, I've always been old fashioned, and thought that there is a one true love for everyone, but it just isn't true, and watching this movie made me realize that, and I know the girl I am in love with right now isn't "THE ONE", but she is a potential "THE ONE", and I do think she will be my "THE ONE", especially after I watch this movie with her.This movie really has a great message, and will make a GREAT, absolutely AWESOME date movie for any two young lovers, it gives you all the knowledge and feelings that you are going to feel when you falling love, and it tells you what to do with them. Trust me, I know, I have recently fallen head over heels in love with a young lady and I know watching this film has just given me all I need to make us work. This movie is amazingly made for the things it was made for, it was made to be romantic, which it truly, deeply, sincerely is, and it was made to be funny, which it also REALLY is, it's zany and over the top, but who cares? It's the message that is there under all the silliness.Ryan Reynolds... can act... wow... Jerry o'Connell has never been better, everyone else is great. Walt Becker(director) has really made an amazing film, especially for someone who is currently dating, or talking about dating... think of this film as a guide to true love, and lots of laughs.This is one of my new favorite films... it really will just make you feel good. It is a must see for anyone, especially for couples. Awesome date movie, and I'm gonna use it on a date, and it's gonna find me true love, and it'll find you true love too. If you think I'm exaggerating, I'm not, this is an amazing movie, don't pay any attention to the IMDb.com user rating, it's under-analyzed, and under-understood.Buy it, watch it(with a date preferably), enjoy it. 10/10

Hidden in the midst of straight-to-video releases, this film is a head and shoulders above the rest, and it boggles my mind that it did not achieve theatrical release.While the subject matter is somewhat unoriginal (Games a man must play to land a "perfect woman" and the pros & cons of commitment/marriage), the film has a magnificent script that gives these themes a freshness not seen since Swingers.Perhaps the film's strongest suit is the cast. Reynolds, Bellamy, O'Connell, and Livingston work great together, and never once does the witty dialog seem forced or unbelievable. The interaction seems realistic, and most importantly, personal (from the male standpoint, anyway). The film is smart and thoughtful, giving a variety of perspectives on the subject matter.The only beef I have with this film (no pun intended) is that the ending is a bit abrupt (I won't give anything away, but you'll see what I mean). I felt a little more elaboration might have tied things up a bit better. However, don't let this deter you, Buying the Cow is a must-see.
