Just sex and nothing else

I must have seen it on the shelf a number of times, but the comparison on the synopsis to Sex and the City put me off. But when I eventually put it on the player, it turned out to be, to my surprise, a little gem.

First the film has a very tight script, it is about a theatre editor who wants to have a child without any of the downsides of a committed relationship, after finding out her man is actually married with a pregnant wife. During that process and despite her initial prejudice against a charming leading man in her play, they fell in love and had a family.

But the fun also come with the smart dialogues, and more significantly, the 'sparkling performances of the ensemble, and in particular the chemistry between the two leads.

A very addictive film.
