A film about people who don't know what love is.
It opens with Dan (Jude Law) and Alice (Natalie Portman) walking towards each other on a busy street (soundtrack Damien Rice "The Blower's Daughter") in slow motion. Alice promptly gets run over by a taxi and is taken to the hospital by Dan. Fast-forward and Dan is getting his picture taken for his book by Anna (Julia Roberts) and they kiss, apparently without a second thought about his relationship with Alice. Fast-forward again and Dan is having cyber-sex with Larry (Clive Owen) whilst pretending to be Anna (very funny scene). Larry meets Anna who has no idea what he's talking about but they end up getting married. And then everybody sleeps about and people break up and get back together again and call each other very bad names in the process.
It's hard to believe that it's actually Julia Roberts in this film because nobody talks to her in such a sexual manner. It's against the law.
No, seriously it's an interesting film but don't expect any deep life-changing insights into love because that's not what this is about. Golden Globes thoroughly deserved by Clive Owen and Natalie Portman (who is very cute).
