Advantages: You might pick up some interior design ideas from the characters' homes. Disadvantages: Exceedingly dull and full of lazy perfromances.
...script is almost as self-absorbed as the characters and is so busy congratulating itself on its witticisms that it forgets how to be funny. Forget about trusting the man and trust me when I say that the only emotion this film is likely to induce in the watcher is boredom. ...

Advantages: a few funny plots Disadvantages: poor acting, bad screenplay, predictable
I hesitated to write a review on this film or not. Although there are great actors in this film I don’t think it was a good story I can highly recommend. It wasn’t as bad to say avoid watching it, actually it was the most neutral film I have ever seen. This film was made in 2006 and I haven’t heard about it until last week.

Advantages: Stellar cast, amusing in places. Disadvantages: Pointless script, cheesy, characters lack moral resolution
I bought this film on the merits of its A-list cast only, having never really heard of it before. I mean, a film with David Duchovny, Julianne Moore, Maggie Gylenhaal and the mighty Billy Crudup in its leading roles surely wouldn't dissapoint?? Alas, it did.
The worst thing about this film is the script. I have no idea how much the cast were paid but it must have been a lot to entice them to act in such a poorly written farce of a film. The story ... ...Crudup's sister) and Duchovny. Its indicative of the film that I cared so little for the characters that I can't even remember their names. (I watched it 2 nights ago). SPOILER! SKIP IF YOU DONT WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS! The plot is essentially about how these two couple split up but then get back together. SPOILER OVER. The painful and pointless opening scene, depicting Duchovny and Moores' child on the toilet complaining that he is unable ...
