Richard (Pierce Brosnan) to, niezwykle przystojny, profesor literatury uniwersytetu Cambrige. Od lat wiedzie hedonistyczne życie, otoczony wianuszkiem pięknych i młodych przyjaciółek, które zmienia jak rękawiczki. Pewnego dnia, na swojej drodze, spotyka niezwykłą kobietę (Salma Hayek), która sprawia, że Richard natychmiast chce porzucić dotychczasowe zwyczaje i resztę życia spędzić u jej boku.

As a romantic movie, it's quite terrible, but there are such interesting actors here who can captivate me just with their presence, that I found at least some enjoyment in it. Malcolm McDowell is a long-time favorite of mine, and Pierce too, since he passed on Bond to Daniel Craig. But still, the biggest win here is Salma, who is still incredibly sexy and gorgeous.

It’s nice that Pierce Brosnan has started out with these romantic comedies by the end with his Bond career and that he has a fair number of beautiful women around him. Here, it’s Jessica Alba and Salma Hayek, who at least gave the movie a bit of charm. Otherwise, it was a slice of one professor’s life. He goes there, does that. He moves from point A to point B. He gets a beer and hooks up with someone. In the morning, he wakes up, goes to teach and it starts all over again. Practically zero story, just an amalgamation of scenes and pretty actresses.

Exactly the same summer ride as in After the Sunset, only 12 years later with a more grizzled Pierce Brosnan, who is still very charismatic, and an ageless Salma Hayek, who leaves the 15 years younger Jessica Alba biting the dust. Instead of a heist comedy, what we have here is a lament about the life of a perpetual philanderer, which is actually fine at its core. Occasionally funny, but mostly absurdly far-fetched with zero plot build-up. A few sunny shots don't save it.

The story is not very functional because it is pretty much predictable and bland. There is definitely no humor here. The most interesting aspect of this film is the stellar cast, but they have virtually nothing to do. Gentlemen can enjoy the sight of Jessica Alba or Salma Hayek, and I have no choice but to appreciate the rather shabby Pierce Brosnan. The logical conclusion of all this is that I'm not very excited.

It's neither ground-breaking nor exceptional, rather a very traditional romantic spectacle that unfortunately isn't very funny and could have done with a little extra cheekiness. However, Salma Hayek and Pierce Brosnan are fun to watch, and Jessica Alba should play angry women more often, because it's much more interesting than beaming smiles and hilarious fawning (as in the opening of the film).
