CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
oragex Surely those who gave it 1 were either deceived from expectations, or a little too stuck in the Hollywood receipt.Granted, it's not a well made film. Slow pace, not constant, the script goes like my cat's eye balls after I twisted him for 10 seconds on the floor. But what makes it pleasant for a relaxed watching, is the 'realistic' situations/discussions/sayings. It's the kind of film that makes you say, hey we/I did the same, remember? Light, very light girls comedy/romance film, Michelle plays OK and sometimes we think she's acting from her own life experience.So why bashing something that's not that bad. Relax on the sofa with a huge hot chocolate and give it a watch with 0 expectations.
A_Different_Drummer Director/writer Heckerling used to be one of the most bankable names in Hollywood. Now, not so much.Audience reaction to this film -- plus the fact it was packaged by a Spanish production company -- pretty much tells us that her batting average is not quite what it was.On paper it must have looked clever. A Rom-Com with a built-in 10 year age difference (older woman, younger man) starring one of the most personable male leads ever (Rudd) and one of the most beautiful women since the Sumerians started keeping records (Pfeiffer), along with a wonderfully precocious teen star (Saoirse Ronan) as insurance.Mix in a (incredbly horrific) trope involving "Mother Nature" appearing in the story at random, and add one of Heckerling's favorite (but most over-rated) actors (Stacy Dash) and -- in theory -- you should have a hit.In fact, all you have when the dust settles is Rudd's charm and Pfeiffer's beauty and a very forgettable script.
tintosecco We don't need to think so much why it didn't make much success, what we need is to accept the clearly truth. Is really hard to find a story like this and so sincerely, very well written, great story with very common situations that follow us those days.Michelle, gorgeous, sexy as always, baggage for a few, and we see, funny and graceful, thanks! Sooirse, the child, beautiful and talented, cheerly voice, makes you think, how good is to be yourself, congrats and success. Nice crew, Paul, like a straight line, maintain his work spreading laughs, very nice to see that. At the end, the combination of all this it creates a great time with someone or even alone, it doesn't matter, I just enjoyed what those people had done. Thank You!
fwomp Romantic comedies abound, so I was hesitant to retry the genre with yet another film starring Michelle Pfeiffer. She seems to love the genre; not necessarily all comedy but definitely the romantic part. Ever since ONE FINE DAY (1996) where she starred alongside the then and future heart-throb George Clooney (MICHAEL CLAYTON), she's been consistently on the romance movie radar screen (that's been 12 years as of this review).But Pfeiffer does an okay job once again as an aging screenwriter named Rosie, trying to keep her job, her sanity, and her teen daughter all from imploding. Circling around these troublesome times is Rosie's growing awareness of her age (mid-40s) and her lack of any new romantic prospects. Her "battle scenes" with her daughter's Ken and Barbie dolls are pretty darn funny, too, which also aided in the darker side of the comedic need to understand one's own age. Her daughter Izzie (Saoirse Ronan, ATONEMENT) has just got her period and is full into what she believes to be womanhood. Rosie's daughter's blossoming adulthood triggers Rosie's own sense of love and she finds it in the unlikely arms of a much, much younger man/actor named Adam (Paul Rudd (KNOCKED UP).Difficulties abound thanks to Rosie's passive-aggressive secretary Jeannie (Sarah Alexander) who does everything to thwart Rosie's possibilities at a love life; and thanks to Rosie's ex-husband Nathan (Jon Lovitz) who's always having some body part of his remade via plastic surgery. There's another "force" battling Rosie and it is Mother Nature herself (Tracey Ullman, CORPSE BRIDE) come to life in the form of a nymph-like creature that talks to Rosie about the need to follow nature's path.The Mother Nature portions of the story are undoubtedly the weakest and easily could've been tossed out without losing anything within the story of I COULD NEVER BE YOUR WOMAN.The outlandish dancing and over-acting of Paul Rudd helped keep the story light and laugh-out-loud interesting. Even Lovitz was a bit of a surprise in that he helped move the storyline along with some decent comedic punch.But if you're looking for anything new within the genre, you won't find it here. Which can be refreshingly simple for some, but irritatingly static to others.
