I saw this movie about a week ago and thought it was pretty good. It follows the average story/plot of the Jonha Hill/Seth Rogan fat guy comedy getting the hot girl. So it was like watching any of those movies but done for no money. So take from that what you will. I think Josh Gad is as funny as they come. I saw him in Book of Mormon this year and never laughed more. For being a character actor this is something 100% different than you are use to seeing of him. His girlfriend, played by Kristen Ruhlin, wasn't unique in any way but she did stand out performance wise as possibly the only serious actor in the bunch. Josh Gad and her together were very good and believable. The rest of the movie is a little goofy filled with super over the top acting characters, which is fun to watch and laugh at. The story sort of jumped around at times and I wish it had focused more on one single plot line but it works. There were a few really stunning shots of the film. It opens in New York and then jumps to these random shots of her in New York later. Those were so cinematic and beautiful and simple to me, I wish I could see more of that movie. The highlight being Charlie Sheen and his hat. He is so funny and made the movie for me. Being the type of movie it is, I expected it to be. The biggest problem I had with the movie was I thought it would be more over the top funny character slap stick funny, but Josh Gad and Kristen Ruhlin made it more into some film festival type film rather than a comedy. It was just not what I expected. Highlights: Hilary Duff looking hot. Charlie Sheen poking fun at himself. Newman and The granny from Wedding Crashers. Check it out for the Sheen factor

Guy meets Girl. Girl has an Ex who comes into town and makes 3's company. The fat guy is insecure and with the typical pretty girl. Fat guy screws it all up by taking his relationship fore granted. He loses the girl and she comes back. In a nutshell that's the movie. I saw it and have to say I laughed a few times here and there. The audience laughed out loud a lot. It'd be a good movie for college kids, drinking and hanging out or a quick date movie. Charlie Sheen was in like 2 scenes. Hilary Duff was actually in it a good number of times. I would say she is the 3rd female most in it for sure. So that was cool. Josh Gad is pretty funny, and i wasn't really a fan of his before this. I love the girl playing his girlfriend, she was by far the most serious. Followed by the Disturbia guy. He's pretty stellar in everything he does. The ex- was really funny for being a meat head sort of guy that he was playing. Overall it had some good moments with some surprising new faces. This is a good movie to at least check out once. It's worth the stars to check out. They were all way more than cameos and I would say I was shocked how much Duff and others were actually in it,

Funniest Moments: Dick jokes, Funny group of guy friends like the random black guy, Random Nudity, "so fresh"- ew, Charlie Sheen Winning, Newman, Hip Hop Granny, Awkward fight scene at the end. Best Overall Moments: Opening scene of the girlfriend on a bridge (thought this is how the whole movie would be) and it probably would have been a better movie if it kept this tone. Girlfriend leaving her lying boyfriend in the middle of the movie. Hilary Duff coming out of the red porche. Charlie Sheen and his hat. Josh Gad trying to keep it real throughout the whole movie. Most Memorable Characters: Kim Powers(Hilary Duff) ,Charlie Sheen, Tyson(random black guy friend), Ex-Husband (Johnny Messner), Fat/Gay friend Best Acting: Sammy(Kristen Ruhlin), Max(Aaron Yoo), Sam(Josh Gad), Gwen (Melonie Diaz)Best Plot (there's a lot): Wish we would have seen more of Sam and Sammy before they moved to LA. The Carly(Brit Morgan) role would have been good to see more of, i love True Blood. Sammy leaving him for NY and he should have gone after her, wish he would have been more of a hero going after and fighting for her. Wish we could have seen more of his new girlfriend (Melonie Diaz)/Gwen role. She's an amazing actress and wish that would have been a bigger story line. Also, the parents and family should have been there more or not at all. But I do love the Granny(Wedding Crashers and Wedding Singer lady). My opinion. Sure I'd tell peeps to see it.

I'd definitely recommend. It's a lot of fun! I DO NOT understand IMDb user ratings. This deserves to be much higher! It says that the weighed average is a 7.8 but the score is a lot lower. Very harsh for such a movie that deserves to be seen for a unique yet fun cinematic experience. I was fortunate enough to of had the opportunity to attend the premiere of SHE WANTS ME. The theater was pretty much full and the entire audience laughed out loud at least 15 or so times. I wasn't counted, but I know it was well over 10 times. Most of the humor comes from Josh Gad's character especially when he is dealing with his girlfriend's ex-husband (played by Johnny Messner). Messner has a lot of credits, but was a relative new face to me. He did a good job, but his character did have the best lines, so I guess most of the credit should be given to the scribe. Charlie Sheen has about 3.5 scenes in the movie, totaling about 6 to 7 of the 85 minute running time. Hilary Duff was in 6 scenes, totaling about 12 to 15 minutes or so I'd say. And Newman from Seinfeld (Wayne Knight) was in 2 scenes, totaling about 6 minutes I'd say. Debra Jo Rupp (Mom from That 70's show) was in pretty much every scene with Wayne Knight. They were funny and it was even funnier seeing the rapping granny from Wedding Singer and Wedding Crashers was in this movie too!
