Review:
Truthfully this was much better than expected, but watching both Sarah Michelle Gellar and Ryan Philippe as sociopaths is fun. See they are brother and sister (by marriage) and Sarah's character is always sexually frustrating her step-brother, so he takes on a bet to try to get her in the sack. He meets the sweet Reece Witherspoon and makes a bet that he could "land her" within a certain time frame. He didn't anticipate that he'd fall in love with her, or that his step-sister would interfere. I particularly like Selma Blair's character in this one, what planet is she from? This is a rather cruel tale, and a surprising one yet still it's not exactly done with a lot of realism but it's still amusing.
