Critics Consensus

Stranding Pierce Brosnan as a charmless cad, this tone-deaf romantic comedy is Some Kind Of something, but it definitely isn't beautiful.

Filme: Ensina-me o Amor Assistido: 1-11-23 Elenco: @piercebrosnanofficial @salmahayek @jessicaalba @malcolm_mcdowell @duncanjoiner Modelo: #romance #comedia #comedy #drama Duração: 1h 39m Ano: 2014 Minha opinião: Temos aqui 3 atores renomados Pierce, Salma e Alba em um triangulo amoroso. Onde Pierce é um professor de poesia na faculdade, imagine oque é que dá esta receita. Um Don Juan. Onde Salma se apaixona e eles se casam. E tem sua cunhada Alba que entra na faculdade e tem Pierce como professor. O tempo passa até o momento que Alba engravida de Pierce. Isso se torna um grande choque para Salma que se separa de Pierce e ele fica com Alba. Mas o tempo passa e a carreira de Alba decola e Pierce vive mas uma vida de aposentado. Alba mais ausente, até que ela se revela que tem outro Afair. E Pierce é deixado. Prova do mesmo veneno. E como tudo isso acabará? Roteiro e enredo mais ou menos. Vale apena assistir? Para quem curte. Nota: 5,5

In light of terrific cast and premise, thought it would be great Saturday curl up together on the sofa ''date night.'' Solid acting but, oh, what messed up storyline(s). A little bit ''Alfie,'' and ''Dead Poet's Society'' - a little humor, a little poignancy and a whole lot of nothing. What a waste of always-watchable actor/actresses in what should should have have been a winner. As is, almost awful.

Will surprise you as plot will take unexpected turns which will be fantastical and over the top but always surprising

I read the tough reviews, so I wasnt expecting a great deal, but it was a really delightful movie with a few giggles along the way. Pierce Brosnan is an excellent actor, and carries this movie, along with Salma Hayek. Dont write this movie off if you want a light, romantic comedy to enjoy.

Such a confused movie. Maybe the script was good originally or someone called in a bunch of favours to get these actors involved but the end result was not good at all.

Times (UK)

Pierce Brosnan's recent career is not a thing of beauty. Yet again he has plumped for a mildly embarrassing, past-its-sell-by-date part.

Rated: 2/5

Guardian

One generation's silver fox is another's creepy old sex pest, and Pierce Brosnan doesn't have the comic chops, or even the facial expressions, to bridge the gap here.

Empire Magazine

We all like Brosnan and one is mortified to be ageist, but for this to have been even slightly romantic, funny or bearable the male lead -- and everyone else -- wanted to be much younger.

One Room With A View

This film has no idea what it is meant to be. Lessons In Love would be an insult to storytelling if it managed to tell any kind of story.

Much like giving someone the same present for Christmas, Easter and their birthday, no matter how this rom-com is gift wrapped the resultant 99 minutes of your life will feel as hollow and wasted as receiving an empty box.

Aaron Peterson

The Hollywood Outsider

Regardless of the cliches or predictability, Some Kind of Beautiful is a fun, breezy, and upbeat offering that allows Brosnan the opportunity to put a shine on that charming accent of his.
