4/5
The unholy mess of a marriage in crisis informs an accomplished comedy. Go to Full Review Kate Rodger Newshub (NZ) 08/29/2019
4/5
A generous, healthy serving of much hilarity, and certainly worth the ticket price. Go to Full Review Ed Gibbs Empire Magazine Australasia 03/02/2010
3/5
Some great moments of comic timing provide for a pleasant, if flawed, bittersweet comedy of errors. Go to Full Review Annette Basile FILMINK (Australia) 03/02/2010
Despite rough patches, this film delivers a surprisingly absorbing take on the romantic misadventures of a group of thirtysomethings. Go to Full Review Andrew L. Urban Urban Cinefile 02/27/2010
The film's shifting, unsettled tone makes it less than satisfying, even while admiring some its strengths. Sex is ever present, and not always to the film's advantage Go to Full Review Read all reviews

07/14/2014 Standard rom-com fare set in New Zealand. Some funny moments. And some relatability to the story. See more 09/28/2012 I'm a sucker for drama comedies like this, so I really enjoyed it, and I loved the cast. Not the most original story in the world - at times it feels like a comedic version of 'We Don't Live Here Anymore' - but that doesn't stop it from being a good film. See more 11/26/2011 Bit average. Men cheating on their wives , I love it when he just comes in his pants . See more 10/01/2011 Mildly interesting, but ultimately nothing new here, and went nowhere. Funny in parts, but that's about it. See more 08/04/2011 A light comedy on growing pains of marriage with lots of love triangles. See more 04/11/2011 Quirky New Zealand comedy that has its moments but never really decides where to go. Could have been better. See more Read all reviews
