It'd look better in a theatre, but worth watching

Rating: 9/10 (10 September 2006)

I saw this movie, I like it all in all. But, it reminded me, after I've been watching it for half an hour, of the movie "Shape of things" (starring Rachel Weisz). Why? Because both movies were screen adaptations of plays, which can be seen through lenghth of scenes, a lot of talking, less doing, character relations, and lack of other characters is not helping either. Anyway, I liked the plot, but the movie looked really set up, the situations are often directed, the possibility of them happening is probably 1 to I-don't-know-how-much. Oh, yeah, and all the talk about sex-come on! One critic said that this movie is a genuine love story for grown-ups, well to me it looked like a sex-story (for grown-ups, I suppose). The doctor character is a bit to slimy, actually he is the one that bothers me the most in all this sex-mentioning. I thought the movie was crap before the ending, so I give it a 7. The ending is great, realistic, explains a lot of things, unlike the rest of the movie. Generally, I think it's worth watching. If you like "grown-up" stories.
