rotten:
The movie bravely goes where too many other films have gone before.

The film is grounded in genuine emotions and its knowing humour serves it well. I laughed like a drain.

An issue movie, a comedy, and a love story, this is pretty good at being all three.

Fresh, funny and thoroughly engaging.

fresh:
The strength of this agreeable comedy, directed by Simon Shore from a screenplay by Patrick Wilde, is that it makes even the tiniest sexual encounters seem emotionally momentous.
