Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

gerritbsmith This is a fun movie and I highly recommend it. I was surprised to see that the average score for this movie was around a "6", which in my opinion is a bit low for the movie. The movie essentially is about the importance of living life to the fullest. The protagonist, Adam, excellently portrayed by Stewart Townsend, comes into the life of three sisters and injects their dull lives with passion again. One possible audience group that will not like this movie are closed-minded conservatives, so those individuals may not want to rent the movie, since most of the main characters do not shy away from "adventures of the flesh." For the rest of us, this movie is an enjoyable treat with delicious twists and turns!

MatrixJake This movie could be summed up as an Irish "Alfie". I thought it was a funny, romantic film that delivered a few plot twists that kept the movie entertaining.Expertly cast, Stuart Townsend keeps all of the girls in the film "ooo'ing and awwww'ing". Kate Hudson played a seemingly naive and always lovable character and bride-to-be. Frances O'Connor, Kate's sister was also brilliant in her portrayal of the lustful sister that you couldn't help, but enjoy.Is it worth a rental??? Sure! Could you drag your boyfriend to this and have him not fall asleep??? Definitely!While I didn't find this movie to have a great deal of comedic value, the trouble the characters get themselves into and layers of deception between each other making this chick flick interesting and worth a viewing.

hall895 About Adam received new life after Kate Hudson became almost famous. But while Hudson plays a key role this film is, quite literally, about Adam, as played wonderfully by Stuart Townsend. The film begins with young Irish singing waitress Lucy, as played by Hudson with an Irish accent that comes and goes, meeting the mysterious Adam. She immediately falls for him and their new romance proceeds happily along. Lucy brings Adam home to meet the family and here things get turned on their head. After seeing the story play out from Lucy's perspective we go back and revisit the same time period from different points of view, those of Lucy's two sisters and brother. It soon becomes apparent that Adam is not quite what he seems and that he has become much closer to Lucy's family than she would ever believe.Frances O'Connor as the quiet, bookish Laura and Charlotte Bradley as the unhappily married Alice will each strike up their own serious relationship with Adam. As we see each of the sisters' stories unfold it puts a new spin on all that we have seen before. Even Lucy's brother finds himself oddly attracted to Adam while Lucy floats along completely oblivious to all that is swirling around her. Each of the key roles is performed well and enough time is given to allow us to explore the motivations of each of these characters. If we didn't really get to know these people and what drives them, everyone involved could come off rather badly, especially Townsend's Adam. But the director makes each character sympathetic enough and it all ties together very well.A clever script, mostly terrific acting, intriguing characters, wonderful Irish scenery and a very smart plot device that adds a unique twist to everything...About Adam has a lot going for it. It's a smart, funny, enjoyable ride.

Carl Johan Crafoord An excellent, inspiring movie. And maybe, just maybe, it'll convince a few of all those boring men in the world to be.. not boring. And not just men, women too.I bonded particularly with Frances O'Connor as Laura, hungry for passion and thrilled at what she found. I enjoyed seeing her evolve throughout the film, a lot because i get those bursts of passion, and i think next time i will try to make it more of an evolving experience than i previously have.It's funny because i found out about this movie (and decided to spend the time watching it) only because Kate Hudson was in it, because she does look great so it wouldn't be a complete disaster. And then I find out there are all these other talented actors in the movie too, and this Gerard Stembridge really seems to know what he's doing. Marvelous.And then of course, there was Adam. Given this much space to swing his arms about Stuart Townsend comes across as very convincing. Eager to please, taking every chance to spread some happiness. And with good reason too, because really.. why not?
