Review of Down with Love

7/10
amusing parody of 60's movies
20 May 2003
I was hoping for more, but in the end, this worked. I'm a fan of the best of the 60's romantic farces (such as "Send Me No Flowers"), which were surprisingly biting and even a bit subversive under their relentlessly cheerful surfaces. I thought that this was going to be an updated version of such a movie, but instead it's a fairly straightforward parody with deliberately two-dimensional performances. The actors and the sets are very attractive, and the plots has some amusing twists and turns, but it's the dumb jokes along the way that made the movie work for me in the end.
