Things get more complimented as his separated wife re-enters his life simultaneously.

The film also carries personal development themes as Richard tries to be an excellent father to the baby. The film is humorous and shows the complexity of modern relationships.

Star Performance

Pierce Brosnan played Richard, portraying his comical and vulnerable character. He shows the value of personal development and responsibility for their actions. Salma Hayek as the wife gives an admirably soft and warm approach to the comical theme of the film. Her emotional scenes and pleas throughout the movie were good for an estranged wife. Jessica plays the romantic interest of Richard as his student, Olivia. Her acting adds a sense of beauty and sassy elements with a youthful energy.

Analysis

Director Tom Vaughan is known for his popular films; His direction and skills adds up to the excellency of this film. Writer Matthew wrote a humorous comic story with a touch of romance. The script of the film was nicely navigated and enjoyable throughout the film. Editors precisely trimmed the scenes ensuring even execution of the film. The music and romantic songs of the film were memorable.

What’s There?

The film uses Richard’s comical situation as a comic element with hints of romance.
Strong performances by the film cast.

What’s Not There?

It lacks originality, the story is predictable and dull.
Richard got an excellent development but other characters remained unexploded.

Verdict

It is an excellent humorous and romantic movie but a predictable plot. Excellent performances by the actors and a funny situational humor about the modernized versions of relationships. The film makes you giggle at the comical situation but also has a sweet romantic side.
