Up-and-coming author Harper Stewart (Taye Diggs) travels to Los Angeles for a wedding and is forced to deal with the fallout once his friends start to recognize themselves in his thinly-veiled autobiographical novel.

Tropes:

Big Man On Campus: Lance, in the college flashbacks.
Career Versus Man: Jordan
The Casanova: Quentin
Dance Party Ending
Evil Redhead: Shelby
Expository Hairstyle Change: used for the college flashbacks
Henpecked Husband: Julian
Hooker With a Heart of Gold: "Candy"
I'm a Man, I Can't Help It: Quentin's philosophy
Men Don't Cry: Averted by Lance during his wedding ceremony
Moment Killer: The skipping CD
My Girl Is Not a Slut: Mia
Ready for Lovemaking Jordan and Mia, separately.
Retroactive Recognition: This is often considered to be Oscar nominee Terrence Howard's breakout role.
Shirtless Scene: Harper
Spear Counterpart: To black female-centered films like Waiting to Exhale
They Do: Lance and Mia
Those Two Actors: Most of the principal actors have made at least one other film with one one of their castmates, but this film is the second of three turn-of-the-century romcoms that Sanaa Lathan and Taye Diggs appeared in together.
Unresolved Sexual Tension: Jordan and Harper
