Clichéd feast of love

10 April 2012

Life is a crazy business, veteran director Robert Benton seems to say, in this ode to the delights and dangers of love.

It involves Morgan Freeman dispensing wisdom in a coffee shop while Greg Kinnear, the owner, loses his wife (Selma Blair) to another woman, and goes to live with a real-estate agent (Radha Mitchell) who is in the midst of an affair with someone else's husband.

Nobody seems to know what they are doing from one moment to another. All this is watchable since Benton is good with actors but it's also clichéd from start to finish - like a middle-class soap.
