Movie Reviews of Better than SexMovie Review: Relationship Deja Vu Summary: 5 Stars
This film is great fun. Even if you've never had a one night stand, this film will remind you of all the crazy things you said, wanted to say, did, or wanted to do when you were in or beginning a relationship. It has some nice touches--the Greek chorus of friends who add perspective to the situation, and the omniscient taxi driver who "guides" the relationship along. The music is terrific, too.
Movie Review: Almost Better Than Sex Summary: 5 Stars
I had high expectations of this movie as I've heard it praised from several friends. Yes, the main draw for me was Mr. Wenham - and I was NOT disappointed. This movie is funny, sexy and just pretty wonderful.
Is it better than sex? Maybe... but if it's not, it's pretty darned close!
Movie Review: Well done! Summary: 5 Stars
Thanx for the swift delivery! The DVD is top quality and I'll be happy to be your customer again! All the best!
Movie Review: Interesting! Summary: 4 Stars
This is definitely NOT your typical romantic comedy, which is perhaps a very good starting point. The story-line is not very original: two people meet with the intent of having casual sex and end up finding themselves more involved in some sort of relationship than they predicted (or wanted to). The screen-play is also not particularly original or interesting.
Still, the movie works very well, in large part, I think, thanks to the two main characters. David Wenham and Susie Porter are just perfect in their roles and they play very very well their parts. The so-called "chemistry" between them works remarkably well, which is essential, because 90% of the screen time is taken by them and only them. I also really liked the fact that none of the two actors are particularly beautiful or in any sense "super" (nor does the director try to make them especially so. Many close-ups are quite ruthless in showing lines and wrinkles). This makes the whole story so much more real and interesting. The minor characters (friends of his or hers) that also sometimes appear to "comment" on the craziness that is happening to their friends are also well played.
Overall, not a masterpiece but a very nice and well done romantic sexy comedy!
Movie Review: Great chemistry Summary: 4 Stars
Without David Wenham and Susie Porter, this would be an okay film. With them, however, this movie sizzles. Together, they are not only super-hot but super-adorable too (not an easy mix to pull off!)The only reason I gave this film four stars instead of five is due to the presence of the all-knowing/annoying cab driver. Her presence is totally superfluous and detracts from the charm of the film as a whole.
