Frederick Smith Seriously, you have here the perfect love story in the perfect setting with the most perfect couple one can think of, if you are thinking of true Irishmen and Irish descendants. Pierce Brosnan is witty, charming, cute "as per Frances Fisher in the film", and above all, incredibly gifted in this role. When you watch him here, you are reminded of the films of David Niven or Cary Grant, and that is no mean comparison coming from someone who sorely laments the lost of such talents. Julianne Moore comes up to Pierce brilliantly, and you could see this film occurring thirty years ago, starring Grant and Hepburn. Julianne's character is the perfect foil for Brosnan's in this delightful duel of the sexes. Parker Posey and Michael Sheen are the typical young adults caught up in their success, and going through a rough patch of the "I'm so neglected" stage of marriage, which the two of them carry off wonderfully. The maraschino cherry on this particular confection is the wonderful appearance of the beautiful Frances Fisher, than lovely lady who has the cheekbones of Venus de Milo and the accompanying smile. Rated PG-13 for sexual content and language, I personally recommend this as a film for you and that significant other when the kids are in bed, or for Date Night.

anniehutch I liked this movie. I picked it up in the 5 dollar bin at Wal-Mart and was surprised.If you're looking for an original comedy this isn't the one for you. The plot is predictable, but overall if you want to just see a cute film about goofy love, this isn't half bad. I wouldn't have spent nine dollars on a movie ticket for this one, but 5 dollars at Wal-Mart wasn't bad at all.I'm giving it a 7 because it was, overall, predictable but cute. Julianne Moore is wonderful and so is Pierce Brosnan and I don't even like him very much. It's a movie that doesn't try to hard to impress. It knows exactly what it is, a romantic comedy and doesn't try to get away from that. Once again, predictable but cute.

intelearts This should have been great: nice couple of actors, a fun premise: two divorce lawyers falling for each others.While not a bad movie per se, Laws of Attraction is not a good one.The word that springs to mind is insipid - it is all just borderline OK - nothing sparkles, all the clichés don't work, and most noticeably its charm is too manufactured.It is hard to pinpoint why the film falls so flat: script, chemistry take your pick....It's all rather well just not very rom-com more hum-drum...You can watch but you won't love it....

arieliondotcom Unless you're a woman into romance novels, or a man who is dating (and in the company of a woman who reads romance novels and who will pay you some...cough, cough...special attention...wink, wink, nod, nod...for sitting through this thing, stay away. It is another fantasy role for Brosnan along the lines of his Bond films. He is in all his cardboard, jawflexing (who wrote that into acting school that every actor must flex his jaw muscles when feeling contemplative?!) glory. Tossle-haired fantasy fodder for females but oh so boring for men. Unless you have a "think" for Juliette Moore, men should stay away (her teeth are the most revealing part of her body and the flashiest part of her acting in the whole film).The script has more holes than a pierced teenage rocker. As someone pointed out in the message boards, two top lawyers fail to notice that little strings on their fingers don't mean legally married without paperwork somewhere. The mother, who has been insisting the daughter never introduce her as her mother and has said how hot she thinks the husband-to-be (Brosnan) is immediately introduces herself to him as "the mother." Just poor writing all around. Maybe if the alternate script and plots on the DVD are as good as another commenter has said it might be worthwhile viewing but I'd never spend money on the risk (I saw this on cable).So, if you're into fantasy fluff, and have nothing else to do, Pierce Brosnan will get you through the film as painlessly as possible. But other than that, as James Bond would tell you, he's Bland...plain bland.
