action

Amy Mandell, 29, is the author of Why Love Doesn't Work, a book about relationship issues from the perspective of women. She landed a bestseller with this book and became a sought-after expert on relationship issues. However, Amy herself hasn't had sex in years, which is why she gets a lot of advice from her friends. She meets the host of a radio show, Matthew Starr, when she appears on his show. Starr, who mostly deals with stupid, simple-minded models, is fascinated by the intelligent, quick-witted and attractive Amy. He tries very hard for her until she makes an appointment with him. Matthew is 37 and is fed up with constant love affairs. He is looking for a steadfast girlfriend and begins a relationship with Amy. Through this relationship, Amy learns to rethink love. However, she unnecessarily complicates the relationship and leaves Matthew again. At an award ceremony for the woman of the millennium , she dared a public new beginning in her speech: “Love works”. Eleven years later, Matthew appears at Amy's autograph session and confesses his love for her. They both kiss passionately.

Reviews

Michael Atkinson wrote in The Village Voice magazine on Aug. 20, 2002 that Julie Davis had energy, but the film was predictable and without a punchline. The comedy is an infusion of the films by Woody Allen and Nora Ephron .

Kevin Thomas wrote in the Los Angeles Times on August 29, 2002 that the film portrayed its main characters with honesty, insight and humor.

The Prisma editorial team certified the “romantic comedy” with “sparkling puns” . Julie Davis acts self-deprecatingly.

The lexicon of international film sees “successful approaches”, but says that “the director / author / leading actress ultimately seems overwhelmed”.
