This spoof of several recent romantic comedies and basically the wgol field in general. The movie tells the story of a guy, Max, who schemes to win the love of his best friend for over 15 years, Kate (Gellar), who works as a translator for the United Nations. He intends to get her love by doing what characters in various movies did to woo a girl, but because she is so used to Max being "just" her best friend, she remains oblivious to his many attempts to show true emotions.
