terrible... so disappointed.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

I love this movie not just because it was moving but because it was funny too. Its about a girl named Claire who moves to London with her boyfriend. He then dumps her and abandons her all alone in a new city. She applies for a job but ends up getting sick during the interview. A charming and kind guy helps her get a small job in a company where she applied. They soon become an item and fall in love. However, Claire then discovers she is pregnant with her ex boyfriends baby. She ends up telling her current boyfriend that its his baby. The couple set about making a new home for the little baby. Unfortently the truth comes out and he dumps her... Welli don't want to give the rest away but needless to say it is just as exciting and confusing in second part. This film is one of My all time favorites. I would strongly recommend watching this, Even if you don't like soppy chick flicks. Anna friel is supported with a strong cast full if witty and slightly crazy Characters.

I'll be brief.I'm a huge Marian Keyes fan. I'd read her grocery list if she'd let me. I own everything she's got in print and I love them all (especially her collection of journalism, Under The Duvet - I suggest you get it if you're reading this), and read them over and over again.Watermelon is one of my favourites. (well, that and Lucy Sullivan and Sushi for Beginners) The book is hilarious, touching, and unsentimental despite the subject matter. The TV adaptation shares these things in common with the book: 1. The protagonist is called Claire. 2. The love interests are Adam and James. 3. Claire has a baby.That's it. That's all they have in common. The TV has a completely different ending, and a completely different plot.THOSE WHO HAVE READ THE BOOK AND LOVED IT: For Christ's sake don't watch this. It's beyond awful and will make you sad for the "real" Claire Walsh. (Not to mention Rachel and Maggie from Rachel's Holiday and Angels by association)THOSE WHO HAVE SEEN THE TV ADAPTATION AND HATED IT: Please, please, PLEASE read the book. It's beyond fantastic and very very funny. It will reaffirm your faith in humanity, which has probably been destroyed after watching this piece of trash.

Having read and loved the Marian Keyes novel was slightly disappointed when i heard that the only thing the book and the(made for TV) movie had in common was the title and the fact that she has a baby. Fair enough the two stories are fairly similar she is Irish, has a baby, falls in love with someone who is not the one who got her pregnant, moves back to ireland and so on. The fact is the little details that have been changed are the ones that get me. The names of the two men have been changed round in the book Adam is James and vice versa. James dosen't actually leave her until she has had the baby. Overall I thought the film was well made and enjoyable, but I recommend reading the book before seeing the tv version.
