Plot: There's a rough-edged elegance in the way six characters pair off in Ed Burns's urban dramedy Sidewalks of New York. The film's release was delayed by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 200...( read more read more... )1, but its observant perception of romance remains timelessly unaffected by the tragedy that struck New York after filming completed. As he did with The Brothers McMullen, Burns creates authentic characters who are likable despite their self-centered neediness and tenuous, often ill-fated connections. Even as Burns's focus on sex and fidelity grows redundant, he works wonders with his clutch of amorous New Yorkers, including a philandering husband (Stanley Tucci) whose affair with a young waitress (Brittany Murphy) leads his wife (Heather Graham) to consider romance with a real-estate client (Burns) who's been seeing the ex-wife (Rosario Dawson) of an aspiring musician (David Krumholtz) who in turn loves the waitress. Messy or neat, these liaisons have a charming appeal that lovers and would-be lovers will readily appreciate. --Jeff Shannon

    A great movie about relationships. Smart, palatable social comedy of errors with flavorful New York backdrop.,

    Nahhhh this doesn't really work.
    They were very obviously reaching for something on the level of Woody Allen - and didn't come close. This just sank fast.

    It's not bad, considering it's about sex, love and relationships, however I would recommend it to any David Krumholtz fan who wants to know if he's a good singer or not...

    Like the idea of touching the lives of ordinary folk. Though it hasn't really happened in this flick it really feels that way. Gritty tension between couples has been captured perfectly.

    Sex life in the city and people of various ages. Sounds like my life. Also like Cactus Flower but the dentist is married.

    From what I saw it looked interesting and different from other movies. I really hope to see the rest though.
