  Well now I need to see both movies, but from the article’s tone and description of the suit, it sounds pretty damning.

    Yeah, granted the article is quoting the plaintiffs’ suit, so we’re getting a pretty skewed interpretation, but both films ending with a scene in which the leads select the same Spice Girls album to listen to really does point towards plagiarism. With that being said, I don’t know how anyone could think they’d get away with that blatant.

    I don’t need to see either movie, but you’re right that the similarities do sound pretty damning.

  I thought Together: A Blatant Rip-off was the name of the film.
