Summary: "Nice Romance"
If you like Pierce Brosnan or Julianne Moore this movie is for you. Anyone who enjoys a Romantic Comedy will also like this movie. I did enjoy the storyline and how Ireland was incorporated into the storyline. Better to buy in a set though.

Summary: "Laws of Attraction"
Unlike many others, I really enjoyed this quirky movie. Julianne Moore is the perfect choice to play the compulsive anal-retentive divorce attorney. Her mannerisms and body language fit so well with the character. Pierce Brosnan is always a great choice for a romantic lead, and this film was a good fit for him. Pierce and Julianne had real chemistry, and their on screen presence together was heart warming. Even though this is a classified as a comedy, I liked the combination of drama and comedy.

Summary: "Should have gone straight to TV..."
Physical beauty counts in films, and Brosnan and Moore
are stunners. That said, Moore cannot play comedy, so
Brosnan's repartee scenes with her are a complete waste.
Not since "Yes, Giorgio" have I heard such stilted and
witless dialogue, and these writers were not writing
for an opera singer, but for movie stars, large-calibre
movie stars. Noticing that Brosnan's production company,
Irish Dreamtime, was a major player in this mess, we don't
have the usual commercial interests to blame entirely.
So,turn your video to no-sound,and enjoy the lovely Irish
scenery, and the marvelous physicality of Brosnan. No one
gets into a limo as he does in the last scene but one.
The man has the build of a dancer, and is drop-dead elegant.

Summary: "Fun and silly"
Okay, on the whole I liked this film, because in the end it had a good message--that marriage is worth fighting for and that relationships aren't easy, but they are worth the effort.
There is a pretty high cheese factor in this film...thanks to Julianne (e.g., the scene of escaping His office without getting caught was nuts, but fun, and then the secret cam shots--perfect). I didn't scream too much, but I did laugh a lot.
What I didn't like--getting into a situation because you got so drunk one night that you didn't know what you were doing; I think this premise is over used and abused. So, I guess in the end it depends on what you value more: a good ending (get the film) or more responsible characters (couldn't get past the first act).

Summary: "I tried to like it.."
Really like Juilanne Moore but the story was so predictable. Some cute moments and occasional humor but I would not watch again....
