Amy Adler Lucy (Monica Potter) has just been dumped in an ELEVATOR...in front of a group of people! Only moments before, she told a friend that she thought this guy was the one. Men stink, don't they? Well, not all, read on. After an appropriate mourning period, she goes out with five men. One is a blind date (John Hannah) and Lucy is so nervous, she is tipsy by the time he arrives. Sparks don't fly. Another pal sets her up with Bobby (Anthony LaPaglia), a full-of-himself ballplayer who wants her to cook him dinner, not take him to a Vivaldi concert. Other dates include a hot Latin gardener, a handsome doctor, and a shy businessman (Henry Thomas). Will Lucy fall for any of these guys? This is one of those romantic comedies that sports the whole package. It has good looking stars, an intelligent and funny script, great costumes, nice settings and more. Julie Christie and Harold Ramis make a nice appearance as Lucy's parents, too. Best of all, the movie has a very imaginative format, alternating and interspersing clips of Lucy's five encounters until, finally, the film comes to a happy ending. In short, its romcom heaven time for all of the genre's fans....and even for those who aren't. Few people will be able to resist Lucy's charms so order up a copy today.

huh I caught this movie on cable. I had hopes for it because the idea appeared fun.I also was looking forward to Gael in an English speaking role. He was reduced to a stereotype. It would have been fun had they had him play the scientist and the Buffy actor (not David Boreneaz) play the playwrite. Go against type and show some imagination.Monica Potter is a beautiful woman. However, the character of Lucy whined too much, was not kind nor did she inspire us to care for her. It was also surprising that she ended up with the 'nice guy' as he certainly was a lot more likable than her. At the end of the day, this movie re-enforces the idea that men will put up with just about any kind of behavior from a beautiful woman if they see even a glimmer of an opportunity to get laid.

floramenzies If you love romantic comedies, this is definitely for you, and if you don't like them, this might just convert you! I'm with a Lucy has a refreshingly original concept, because it is totally unlike typical romcoms, as there aer 5 potential leading men instead of 1! Lucy is a newly single girl who is still unhappy after being dumped by her seemingly perfect boyfriend in a lift. Over the course of the year, pushed on by her sister and best friend, she goes on 5 blind dates. It is revealed at the beginning of the movie that she is marrying one of the dates.The film is about the 5 dates she goes on, and it is not revealed until the end who she marries, so it is thankfully not all predictable like so many of films of thid type are. In fact it's such a great idea, I'm surprised no one thought of it before! This is totally uplifiting, funny and really sweet film, and not at all pretentious or silly or irritating. Potter is great and not at all annoying as you might expect from some comedy actresses, as in this film she is a bright, witty and wise girl, and all the men are great, what a brilliant range of men all in 1 film. Even guys might like it! Please see this, you will pleasantly surprised and uplifted. It's just a shame you can't buy it in England!

theprovinces Monica Potter is tremendously appealing and talented and it's curious why she hasn't achieved the success she so obviously deserves. Could it be that she resembles and sounds like Julia Roberts? Since her performances don't exude ego, this viewer finds her more appealing and a better actress.The film chronicles the dating adventures of Lucy and is framed by five significant dates over the period of a year. Within the initial glances of her first dates with five bachelors, it's revealed that Lucy is marrying -- but which one. There's some predictability -- you know which ones are a definite "no," but it maintains a credible element of mystery and guessing.Julianne Nicholson, who plays Lucy's sister is completely charming and an actress to watch. This is also a must for fans of John Hannah who appears all too briefly.
