Like the Coen brothers’ Intolerable Cruelty, this aims to recreate the witty glamour of classic screwball
comedies by setting a romance within the world of divorce. Pierce Brosnan and Julianne Moore, as opposing divorce attorneys who fall for each other, work up only a television series’ level of chemistry, when a movie deserves stars who sizzle – like Cruelty‘s George Clooney and
Catherine Zeta-Jones.
