There's a DVDtalk review here: http://ads.dvdtalk.com/reviews/Read_Review.asp?sku=21
which gives it agreat review, although I thought I recalled DVDtalk reviewing it and passing on it...

Anyways, I rented this film intrigued by the cast and why I hadn't heard more about the film. While the film is not bad, it really wasn't one that interested me a great deal, especially in terms of repeated viewings. I'd rate it about a 6 out of 10, but no something I'd look to own.

Also, if you do a search you'll find several threads with members discussing their feelings about the film.

Aside from my review (link above) there was a less positive review posted at the DVD Talk review section, which can be found here:

I would watch this movie again, just to see Meg Ryan in that t-shirt again.

It's a film that keep much of its theatrical play origins. There are many monologues within the film to give the actors some scenery to chew on. There are some really uncomfortable man/woman issues on the table with this film (though it's filtered through drug-hazed glasses sometimes). I'd recommend it as a rental, though there are 2 sets of commentary for the film too.
