 FABULOUS fun with messages June 5, 2009
Carolyn Wright (Denver CO USA)
I had no idea that a lady NOT from Texas (and I LOVE my lady friends from Texas) could speak forever without actually taking a breath! :D This had me laughing so hard because SJJ's character was soooooooooo serious and apprehensive, AT's character was so disarmingly romantic and sincerely likeable, and her parents actually honestly shared their experiences candidly. Mia Farrow is light as a feather, as usual, with depths I've only seen in women who truly love their family, seemingly, effortlessly being there for whatever is needed. WONDERFUL film! This became a favorite the first time I saw it and watched SJJ spinning over the dance crowd! :D:D:D
I enjoyed it more than seeing Woody Allen's films September 22, 2007
Filmfan (Denmark)
There are so many quick witty remarks that it resembles Woody Allen's humor, but I enjoyed this film more than any of Woody Allen's films, I'd say. Well done. Very enjoyable light romantic comedy. (The film should slow down a few more times, and catch it's breath, though - at one point too many witty remarks are coming at you, with all of what is going on in that family of hers.) But I'm saving this one. I'd like to see it again sometime.
a brilliant film worth your time to watch! makes you wonder about life!! July 25, 2007
Jenny Achilleos (Limassol, CYPRUS)
WATCHING THIS FILM MAKES YOU REFLECT ON YOUR OWN LIFE!! There is nothing make belief about it. It realy shakes you up about what people go through and what they feel about life and how they percieve it! Its probably true that most of the time we follow our parents life style...maybe not all the way...but they definately affect our way of thinking! And some people are able to change and make it thru the obstacles and some people are just not meant to be!! You should also check out the film PLAYING BY HEART with angelina jolie, shawn conneri and alot of other famous actors.! That too was a wake up call to how certain people find it easy to adapt and others are afraid of change while others fight for what the truley feel in their heart!
 What to Expect in Love and Relationships November 16, 2004
Diaspora Chic (Silver Spring, MD)
This movie is for anyone who second guesses the person they are with and want to be married to them. The main character, Gwynn Marcus, played by Sarah Jessica Parker, is engaged to her boyfriend Matt. Matt is the one for her and she knows it. But she second-guesses the relationship because she has family members whose expectations of marriage are based on fantasy. On top of that, her parents drive each other crazy and commit adultery behind the other's back. Matt, feeling that she isn't self-assured ends their relationship; and I can't blame him. Any man that possesses his qualities is a taker. Gwynn has an affair with her mother's lover wishing that he's the one but realizes that he's not the one for her and not to mention, he slept with her mother.
This movie was a good movie. Four stars is enough to rate it. Frankly, these folks needed therapy and Miami's scenery isn't exactly that kind of therapy.

Here is a film that is so negative about the possibilty of finding true love, it should be banned from sale or rental to all engaged couples. In fact, anyone who has a positive outlook on relationships and doesn't wish to wallow in the mire of adultery, divorce and human failure, should skip it altogether. I think that covers everyone who is not one of the characters in this film, or similarly inclined. ............... Sarah Jessica Parker who is the only saving grace here, is Gwen, an engaged lady who is surrounded at every turn by dysfunctional relationships. This film is not even close to reality at any point. No one knows this many unhappy people buried in illicit tawdry affairs, even if they live in Hollywood! In fact, this film tries so hard to be NOW and HIP and COOL, like this is what you can expect from todays relationships. Totally absurd. Gwens mom, played my Mia Farrow, is having an affair with her mothers aka Gwens grandmothers nurse, played by Antonio Banderas in an earlier fleeting role. Makes you wonder why he got later roles. Gwens dad is terribly upset, but mom reveals HE has been having plenty of affairs for years too. Big surprise! What is Gwen to do? Go to her brother for advice, of course. She arrives in the middle of a fight between him and his pregnant wife, they couldn't possibly be cooing on the couch happily now could they? Of course not. What is THEIR fight about? His affair with his partners model wife Naomi Campbell. Wow, let's play the interracial card possibilities here into the film for a little added zest! Of course, she isn't a single model, I said partners WIFE. Yet another wayward spouse to add to an ever growing roster of remorse. There is just NO hope for this family or anyone they touch illicitly in cheap brightly painted motels. .............. So there you have the basics. Everyone is married, everyone is miserable. They're all cheaters, liars, adulterers, and just not any sort of example for poor Gwen to reason herself into not being afraid of the possibilty of her own marriage. The poor girl, even I got depressed at the whole situation. ............. If you want to watch a movie that emphasizes all the negative possibilities of married life, here is a perfect film for the committment shy to bolster his or her argument. However, if you still believe in true love and happily ever after, you will want to avoid this like the plague. Especially don't watch this with anyone you love. Some romantic comedy, it sends a message to the faithful like THEY have the problems. If you are curious, go ahead and watch. Don't say I didn't warn you.
