Let me say right away that normally I love anything with Denis Quaid and Greg Kinnear in it, but this film was, for me, too much like a play - i.e. nearly all dialogue and not much action or changes of scenery. I stuck with it to the end as I wanted to know what happened to Denis and Andie McDowall's characters, but stuck was the operative word as I had become bored with it just over half way through.

About the reviewer: SusieP

Pour a big glass of wine, break out the chocs and put on a fantastic film - life just doesn't get much better! I love all types of films but am a sucker for a really affecting romance, whether it's a sad or happy ending. Hate extreme gore, long boring shoot-outs and car chases and would never watch any of those "torture" films, but love a good edge-of seat murder thriller or courtroom drama.
