and well-directed. Anyone who has ever lived in or visited South Florida will enjoy this film. Sarah Jessica Parker is very good, and I am not really an ardent fan of "Sex and the City".Mia Farrow and Paul Mazursky portray an older well-to-do Miami couple: ..."what shall I decorate the den in, sea foam or teal"..., Mia wonders. While lines like that could seem vacuous, they are humorous when presented in an intelligent way.Infidelity, boredom, job frustration. SJP has some excellent lines, like when she tells her grandmother ..."your generation had something to fight against Nazis...what does my generation have?"... . Also when she is demoted at her job, her boss tells her not to buy into the "glass-ceiling theory"; she says, as a woman I don't have to buy it I get it for free everyday. Anyone who has ever worked in the superficial world of advertising will get a few laughs.Antonio Banderas is also in a small part, as Farrow's paramour.This film deserves a watch, especially because there are so few intelligent romantic comedies. Definitely worth it.

This is Sex and the City set in Miami. Sarah Jessica Parker does exactly the same thing she does when she's Carrie. Sit at a laptop, go on dates (even though she's engaged) and ponder about life whilst comparing it to friends and families.It's like if Sex and The City and The Royal tenenbaums met each other in a more realistic way.Antonio Banderas, Mia Farrow and Jordan Marcus are very entertaing also. However Naomi Campbell isn't. So thank god her screen time is just under 5 minutes.It's a good entertaining movie though and funny in parts. I recommend it.

If I had gone by the reviews I've seen of this movie, I never would've watched it, and that would've been my incredible lost. This movie is fun, witty and amusing in a way that kept me entertained the whole way through.

This comedy follows the relationships of a husband and wife, their 3 adult children, and their romantic partners. The couples' relationships cover a spectrum of durations, from the one couple just beginning to plan a marriage, one married for less than 6 months. one with a young child and another on the way, and the long-time married. Only about half of marriages last, and a good portion of the rest suffer from infidelities, neglect, boredom, etc. These are the issues considered by the unwed daughter, played by Sara Jessica Parker. After watching the movie I went to IMDB to see if Woody Allen wrote or directed it. It seemed very much like one of his. SJP plays the Woody Allen character, very creditably.See it from the beginning; this is not one to pick up in the middle!
