Jason Lee is one of the wittiest, funniest actors...I just love watching him, and he was absolutely great in this movie. David Schwimmer was good, and Mili Avital was impressive(first time I had ever seen her!). I thought this was a great romantic comedy...to the extreme. VERY ROMANTIC, VERY COMEDIC!

This movie appealed to me for one main reason.I went through almost the same situation with my best friend and now ex-girlfriend. This movie is set around two best friends Max and Jay.Max is the party type all around ladies man while Jay is an unlucky in love man still sulking over a pat relationship. I personally think the roles were givin out perfectly.David Schwimmer as the ladies man.Jason Lee as the sensitive man(a drastic change from his usual roles especially in Kevin Smith's movies)and Mili Avital give a sexy performance as the girl wanted by both men. If you like a good romantic comedy i would say see this.Heck even if your not into romantic comedys still see this movie. 4 out of 5 stars.

All I have to say about this movies is that if Jason Lee was a somewhat bigger name in the industry, it he should have had top billing. I mean this movie is all about Jason Lee, he is great in this film. It also shows that he can play a different role then the characters he has played in Kevin Smith films. If you like Jason Lee watch this movie.

I waited years for this film to come out in England and since it never did the other week i ordered it off Amazon (Region 1 Import), and I got to say it was well worth the wait the characters have brilliant connection as friends the scenes of Max and Jay are really well written and acted out, well chosen actors E.G David Schwimmer (FRIENDS) and Jason Lee (My Name Is Earl)(One of my all time favourites),and the storyline doesn't get boring. So for any FRIENDS or MY NAME IS EARL fans this is a must see recommend to anyone 15 and over. One of the best classics of the 90s' 10/10

With those stunning camera shots of Chicago and that snappy Harry Connick, Jr. song in the title sequence, "Kissing A Fool" gets off to a great start. And I liked Bonnie Hunt as the story's narrator. But the film suffers from a plot that is too predictable and from characters whose behavior is not believable. This is one of those movies that you can see the end coming a mile away. There are virtually no plot twists to deflect the story's straight-line trajectory. As such, the story is almost too simple and unimaginative to be worth telling. To varying degrees, most romantic comedies are fairly shallow. But "Kissing A Fool" has no subtlety at all, not in plot, not in characters, not in dialogue. Lacking any complexity, the story relies on two main characters, Jay (Jason Lee) and Max (David Schwimmer) whose behavior toward each other is not believable. They're supposed to be best buddies. But they are constantly at each other's throats. Their constant arguing not only is annoying; it calls into question their friendship. How can they be best buddies? The two are not at all alike. Jay is bookish and cerebral; Max is your typical arrogant, cocky self-centered sports freak jerk. All that animosity between these two guys does not lend credibility to their "friendship"; yet, it is the main contrivance that propels the film's plot. Further, it renders a story conclusion that is, by extension, also not believable. The film's acting is a tad exaggerated. I like Jason Lee, but he tends to overact in this film. Mili Avital, as the girl in between, is okay, but she doesn't have much to do. And David Schwimmer's performance is something of a hyper-masculine strut-fest. Some subtlety in acting would have helped a lot. For all that, "Kissing A Fool" is still worth watching, once. It has credible production values, and there are occasional lines of dialogue that are funny. And I think the film's underlying concept is fine. I just wish the script and the acting could have been a little more nuanced and subtle.

I had never heard of the movie before but when they showed it on TV it had a great review and since I like everybody from the Friends cast very much I thought let's give it a try. And I am so glad I did. The actors did a great job and I am surprised you only hear so little about them (beside David Schwimmer). David was cast totally against his Ross character from Friends and I think he pulled it off very well. The actors who portrayed Jay, Sam and Andrea were very good, too. The story is told in flashbacks to a really funny couple and there is some great dialogue in this one. A really pleasant surprise, give it a try!

The story is told as a flashback from Linda Streicher (Bonnie Hunt) at their wedding. Max (David Schwimmer) is a womanizing sleaze. Jay (Jason Lee) is his best friend. Jay introduces Sam (Mili Avital) from work to Max and they hit it right off. Three weeks later, they are set to marry. David Schwimmer is completely miscast as the womanizing stud who's every girl's dream. Somebody really needs to stub him with that toothpick. Maybe they should have switched his role with Jason Lee. And without any spoilers, let's just say the scheme breaks all kinds of bro code. And it's completely manufactured strictly for rom-coms. The jokes all fall flat. Mili Avital is functional as the lead, but considering they had the much funnier Judy Greer, and hotter Kari Wuhrer in the same movie, she pales in comparison. Jason Lee is the only one that does a great job. He plays a slightly nerdy lovable writer. Only he needs better partners to play opposite to.

The only reason I can see that "Kissing a Fool" was made in 1998 was to try and capitalize on David Schwimmer's popularity as a TV "Friends" actor. I watched it today during the commercials NBC showed during the Australia Olympics broadcast. Which means I saw most of it (lots of commercials). David plays Max, a Chicago TV sportscaster, who is both insecure, and at the same time stuck on himself. His friend, Jay, played by former pro skateboarder Jason Lee, introduces him to "Sam", played by Israel native Mili Avital. Max and Sam seem perfect for each other. But Max wonders if he can really keep Sam "satisfied" long-term and tries to get Jay to see if she can become unfaithful. Sam and Jay have to work together on a writing project, and in the end they begin to realize they are right for each other, and Max realizes it also, and finds out some things about his personal growth. Overall a very simple and often told story, but done so in an enjoyable way. I especially liked Jason Lee's performance. I also saw him in "Mumford" and he was very good in that. He is a 'natural.'
