As Londoner Katie (Patsy Kensit) turns 21 years old, she decides it's time to stop stringing men along and make some serious decisions. As she mulls over the possibilities, she weighs her lovers against one another. Her Scottish beau, Bobby (Rufus Sewell), is an alluring sort, save for his habit of shooting up with heroin now and again. And Jack (Patrick Ryecart), her second lover, is married. Which leaves Katie with a third option: ditch both men and instead start a new life in Manhattan.

It's an experiment that is as interesting as it is repellent. [Full review in Spanish]

Twenty-One, in a thoroughly tasteful manner, makes a voyeur of the viewer.

Solid star-making performance by Kensit who is at times completely unsavory and charming at the same time. Unfortunately she is forced to talk to the camera way too much making it difficult to really observe her character. Honest storytelling that would've been better with less style.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
