Good concept, poorly executed.

Did you people see the same film I saw?

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Christine Lahti gives a marvellous performance moving from being unable to cope, to adapting her life and she has the viewer cheering her all the way .Brian Kerwin as her errant husband is suitably pathetic , dithery, useless and unattractive compared to charismatic Brian Brown.I watched this film being rather disappointed by the title which seemed to bear little resemblance to it ; but don't be . The final scenes will explain everything that it is about .And her philosophy , at the end , in one sentence sums the film .After questioning the title throughout I found myself smiling at how Id been lead and at the outcome .

As a middle aged woman (Ack, really? I don't FEEL middle aged) I could relate too well with this moving poignant film. So maybe it is fiction, but it has a hopeful message. Like "Under A Tuscan Sun" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0328589/maindetails) it made me laugh, cry and realize that there is hope in the universe.Christine Lahti (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001441/) is wonderful in this movie and does a fabulous job of sharing her feelings with the viewer. If you watch this an cannot at least feel something of what she's sharing then you may not have a heart. This really is a wonderful film, and the entire cast does a great job! In some respects this movie is a bit more serious version of the great TV show "Cybil." Regardless of who you are, this is a great chick flick, and like "Under A Tuscan Sun" a great movie to see if you are in her shoes . . .Sam

Enjoyable movie for a quiet Sunday evening. A male confesses to his wife that he's in love with her younger co-worker and protege. Helped by brains, family and friends, the woman copes with the situation and becomes stronger. Good play of Christine Lahti in the leading role, wonderful play of the couple's daughter. We can consider this movie not necessarily a drama, although the basic idea is a couple splitting up, but a comedy, since the puerile dialog between the man and the woman gives us a good laugh. And I'm not really sure if the producers wanted it this way. This isn't a movie to remember, although there are a few memorable quotes, that one cannot find in much higher rated movies.

Christine Lahti shines as a middle-aged professional woman who feels like she's been hit by a train when her husband announces he's leaving her. Not only that... he's leaving her for the younger, prettier, perkier woman who happens to be her assistant! Lahti is devastated but somehow manages to laugh through her tears as she thinks back on the signs of marital woe that she missed. Thank goodness she has support from her best friend, her 2 kids, and her mother. Things at first go from bad to worse for her, but then there is a silver lining, a wonderful revenge scene involving her boss --- and a man from her past, to help her pick up the pieces of her shattered life. Highly recommended for all gals over 40!!
