Did they forget Forget Paris?.....
11 February 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Ben and Katie married fifteen years ago and gifted with two children. They stay together but their hearts had separated long ago.

After the kids are send to summer camp, they both start living separately and eventually preparing to break news of their separation to the kids.

But being alone in each one's own world makes them to think about the other. When the day comes Katie and Ben stick together for the good of their children, and maybe there is still a spark there.....

I'm a sucker for these types of movies, Reiner is a master of these films, having talking heads and flashing back to better times, whilst the toe main characters begin to pine for each other, then meet up for dinner, argue, and then fall for each other all over again.

There's nothing new here, Willis has his group of friends with their ideals, as does Pfeiffer, and there are no prizes for guessing how the film ends.

Willis and Pfeiffer have wonderful chemistry, and despite some 'tense' moments of mild altercations, it's a pretty safe film that ticks every romantic comedy box..

But the maker forgot about Forget Paris, five years earlier. It's literally the same storey and narrative.
