    It turned out better than I thought it would at the beginning. Definitely surprised me. It had it's funny moments.

    "I'm not fuckin' her!
    - No, she's fuckin' you. You just don't know it."

    This is more of a documentary on how weak men can be when confronting beautiful women. They can totally manipulate the weakest of us! Stand up tall men and learn from this guys mistakes!

    Chris Rock proves ...( read more)that he has screenwriting talents. The dialogue is great at times, giving you several good laughs. Some totally funny scenes, like the one involving an ambulance and a viagra pill...

    The ending of the movie is the weakest part, when Chris Rock turns this one to a musical! Goddamn. But still, funny and enjoyable.

    Is this what's waiting for all of us men?

    It was an interesting movie...how they summed up his cheating by saying that at least he didn't stick it in...f-ing unsatisfied bastards :(

    This is the first time I have ever caught myself thinking "man...there is just way too much swearing in this movie". Am I getting old? Maybe, but I don't think I am offended by swear words as much as I was put off by their use by these characters. Is this really the way marrie...( read more)d men and stock brokers talk in their every day life? I must be out of touch. Apart from that, it's a pretty good premise, with a good amount of the observational type wisdom you expect from Chris Rock, but it just drags on way too much.

    Chris Rock shows he gets better with age. Playing upon marriage boredom and temptations that can be so commonplace, this movie keeps it real with humor, the possibilities that can result from decisions and making sense of what is most important. Richard's struggle with his marria...( read more)ge/love/sex dilemma is well-balanced with the actions and reactions of the supporting cast and the karma written into the story. Dani Marco was perfect as the sexy partygirl who was having problems with understanding love and with maturing into becoming her own woman. She was the antithesis of Brenda, who was almost too much being her own woman. Before it became nauseating, this movie gave me a twist I did not expect: a very happy ending..

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

I Think I Love My Wife is first and foremost a sex comedy. But Rock is sharp enough to set it in a world where people of all races share the same dreams and desires -- if not the same real estate. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today

Very little that's clever, romantic or witty in this formulaic romp. full review

March 16, 2007
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

I Think I Love My Wife has little to say and it doesn't have enough laughs to work as pure comedy. Rock the writer/director isn't doing Rock the actor any favors here, nor is he doing many for the aud... full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune

Rock's defining comic characteristic is his no-nonsense honesty, tackling awkward issues head-on with bold, hostile, uproarious insights. Playing a milquetoast, he's tossed away his best weapon. full review

March 16, 2007
Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle

I Think I Love My Wife slogs through drama and comedy as though both were a duty as onerous as a sexless marriage. Rarely do characters display anything approaching logic, unless their 180-degree turn... full review

March 16, 2007
Pete Hammond, Maxim

Rock really is attempting to channel Woody Allen in trying to craft a flick that flows freely from his own stand-up comedy style into a more sophisticated setting. full review

March 16, 2007
A.O. Scott, The New York Times

There are some raucous set pieces and a lot of frank, jokey talk about sex, but I Think I Love My Wife is not after crude or easy hilarity, and Mr. Rock works hard to hold his aggressive, irrepressibl...

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Mixing Rock with ooh-la-la turns out to be as appetizing as chalk and cheese. full review

    This wasn't the best Chris Rock movie, but it was alright. It had funny parts and stupid parts, like the singing. All together, it was alright.

    Take care all,

    Chris Rock is annoying on his own. Chris Rock as a sniveling dislikable character is even worse. Half way through this movie I had to strain from shutting it off. The consistent stupidity of his character did not make me empathetic to his situation but instead made me want to bash in the tv.
