After careful consideration, Emma wants to call off Richard's wedding and she spends the night with Patrick. The next morning she discovers articles about herself and the wedding invitations from Sofia and Patrick in his trash can. Based on her discoveries, she assumes that Patrick is only playing one game with her, and she rushes off. Patrick confesses to her that he wanted to take revenge on her for advice that led to his separation from Sofia, but then fell in love with her.

reception

Stella Papamichael wrote for the BBC on February 26, 2008 that the comedy was so "hopelessly twisted" that it was asking too much to devote ninety minutes to it. It shows that Thurman is best at portraying cool characters, while here one demands a change of image from her. The script was written half-heartedly.

Anthony Quinn wrote in The Independent on February 29, 2008, even the previous "pathetic work" (dismal pedigree) by the director and the screenwriter did not prepare for "this shock". The plot shows "unbearable stupidity" (insufferable silliness) . The portrayal of Uma Thurman seems "through and through wrong".

The editorial team of Cinema judged: “Comedic moments of glory may look different, but director Griffin Dunne (“ In Matters of Love ”) and his relaxed actors give the very predictable plot charm. Belly people like Patrick will have fun with such carefree kitsch stupidities. Conclusion: Romantic comedy from the Hollywood kit - with an extra cute trio of leading actors. "
