Well, this is classic romantic comedy when one of the characters want to date, and the other one only wants sex. That's an ordinary issue of life, and I didn't know it was universal-- well, maybe I thought it only happened in my city. One curious thing is that usually in this kind of relationship the male part is the one who wants only sex instead of a commitment, and in this flick the girl is the liberal one. Maybe that's a tendency coming from our society to equate the genres, considering that other recent movies like "What's Your Number?" and "(500) Days of Summer" already showed this trend. That assimilation is happening mainly in the USA, and since Brazilian's society is much likely Americans, we are advancing in the same speed. Maybe that's a sign that soon there will be no big differences between men and women. Speaking about the movie itself, it's well acted, written and directed. Nothing above the expected, and unfortunately appeals to Hollywood clichés in the end, but it's interesting to notice a difference kind of work from Natalie Portman.
