Audience kept trying to make this a comedy, but it obviously isn't. I wasn't sure exactly what this movie was trying to do. All I can say is, Donnie should have stayed at the first woman's house.

...and the portrayal of the absolutely amoral pop-pychobabbling Jack, of whom I can't quite figure out how to say enough bad about. Words like shallow, worthless, liar, and cheat come to mind quickly but just don't do him justice. Unfortunately IMO he didn't get quite the comeupance I hoped for. Initally I felt his remorse about the possibility of losing Christine was sincere, but after seeing the movie several times, I've decided it's just another lie. Their marriage ought to last maybe a year.
