This movie is captivating. The performances are excellent and the drama of the characters' lives is too much not to take it straight to heart
It is a depressing movie about decaying marriages. Two couples who are best friends with each other find attention in the other couple's spouse.
This film, like In the Bedroom in 2001, takes an Andre Dubus short story and makes it into one intense movie. The acting in this movie is outstanding, and the stakes are high in every scene. Expecting a quasi-Rom-Com, we got a Rom-Dram (thanks for that one, Sid!), but it's well w...( read more)
I have zero experience with marriage first hand, but these four actors made a great attempt at portraying the issues that must go on in married life. Some of the scenarios were far fetched and I'm inclined to be both fascinated/jealous of Laura Dern because she is Ben Harper's g...( read more)

The murk and mystery of marriage, adultery and friendship have seldom been illuminated with such harsh precision. full review
The film, sometimes talky and overemphatic, is also literate, erotic, brutally funny and touched by brilliance in its quartet of live-wire performances. full review
It's a sad thing that they couldn't talk to each other; it would have solved everything. What's sad, it happens everyday, in every 3rd house you see.
