Just Friends

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Ryan Renolds is a fattie who reveals his crush on the hot chick in school who is also his best friend. He gets embarrased at a party and vows revenge by living well. Circumstances bring him home again as a successful and skinny music industry exec. That's when he realizes he's still in love with the girl from high school and tries to win her back.

The storyline he is a bit erratic and phoney, but it's fun and funny. Chris Klein is great as Ryan's competition. Ryan is his funny self, but not in the same style as "Waiting" or "Van Wilder".

As romantic comedies go, you won't want to set yourself on fire after sitting through this one.
