The hooking sequence appear ill-contrived and foolish. The chance meeting seems extremely unrealistic. It doesn't happen in real life, which makes me stop watching this movie.

This film adaptation of the Patrick Marber play has a lot of nastiness and misogyny. It stars Jude Law, who was better in the Pinter version of "Sleuth" (which had its share of nastiness.) It really belongs in Neil LaBute territory.

I gave this one a chance because I love Julia Robert's but wow, it's HORRIBLE. Very confusing storyline and way too many implications of sex. The fact that there's absolutely no nudity is a mystery. The half star is for the scenery of…

Smart comic script of four strangers looking, finding, fall in/out of love by accident. Well put in the trailer in special features:
Love is an accident... waiting to happen.
Desire is a stranger... you think you know.
Intimacy is a…
I really enjoyed this one,....and it reminded me of Damien Rice, which was a bonus....have dug out his music again and even bought some more....(and borrowed some too...aren't libraries wonderful?!)
Confused and lost society, I used to respect Natalie Portman but in this movie she is a stripper and she is all naked in
The private room she does it all eccept touching.

A movie heavy on charisma and beautiful as soap. Everyone is horrible to each other, no question, but with the music, atmosphere, and faces it has going for it I love to see them go about their wicked ways. It's an intimate movie. It gets…

Was kind of a slow movie! You could skip this one and not miss much!

If the point of the film was to make beautiful people look like human garbage, then it was a success. Leaves a bad taste in your mouth & nothing but disgust for all characters involved. Highly unrecommended.
This is possibly the worst movie I have ever tried to watch. These actors should be ashamed of appearing in this pure trash. The characters were cruel and lacking any morals or tenderness. No one could decide who they wanted to be…

Great movie with an intriguing ending! I felt like Julia Roberts could've done a better job, but Natalie Portman, Jude Law and Clive Owen did a beautiful job. Shows how love can be very selfish and how it destroys people. Unconventional…

The dvd box has a quote on it along the lines of "Finally, a love story for grown-ups." Well, I kept waiting for some grown-ups to appear in the story, not to mention love... Not worth the time.

Definitely not an uplifting movie. Well-acted and well-filmed, but you won't turn it off and feel good about the world.

Tedious, bitter, and contrived. Miserable people doing miserable things that make eachother and themselves more miserable.
There's not a single genuine, honest moment in this film...

Well acted and the cast is addictive, you get through the whole movie because you want to see more of them (for me, it was Jude Law, it's always Jude Law). Unfortunately, that's about the best the film has to offer. It's really not much…

This movie was so carefully crafted around a big-name cast, yet I did not like or empathize with any of the characters. Mostly the thought in my head was "Oh, stop it already and grow up." Plus, the trailer included a LOT of footage…
