DVD Review
by Sean Axmaker, Special to MSN Movies

"Heathers" writer Daniel Waters dives back into black comedy with this odd tale of a handsome New York executive (Simon Baker) whose happy life and impending marriage are turned upside down when he gets an e-mail with the name of every woman he's ever had sex with. The problem is that it continues on to list every woman he will have sex with, and it's a long list. It's a strange comedy with an interesting premise (his fated sex binge becomes a curse he can't escape and a chore that loses all pleasure) and a weird subplot about a serial killer (Winona Ryder) who hunts men guilty of sex crimes against women. Robert Wisdom and Patton Oswalt appear in comic interludes as the technicians of the celestial computer that sent out the fateful list, and Leslie Bibb and Mindy Cohn co-star. Features commentary by writer/director Waters and the making-of featurette "101 Perversions" (and if that's not a title guaranteed to attract supplement browsers, I don't know what is).
