Harockerce What a beautiful movie!
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Desertman84 Julianne Moore and Pierce Brosnan play rival lawyers in a divorce case who fly to Ireland to gather evidence against each others' clients. After a wild night at an Irish festival, they wake up married and with a distinct conflict of interest in this film entitled,Laws Of Attraction.This was based on a story by Aline Brosh McKenna and it was directed by Peter Howitt.The movie was simply a standard opposites-attract romantic comedy.Too bad that aside from being formulaic and clichéd,it was painfully predictable, full of implausibilities, and crowded with supporting characters that are underdeveloped and overplayed.The only thing good about it is that Julianne Moore and Pierce Brosnan create just enough chemistry to carry the movie.It adds nothing to its type of movie genre and it rather forgettable.
Raul Faust Yay, "Laws of Attraction" is a good movie, despite having many romantic clichés and not being funny.The way the lawyers were portrayed here was very realistic and Julianne Moore gives a perfect acting.I was about to rate this movie very high, but after Rafferty's statement about the four million check, the movie died for me. It was the most unethical a counselor could have done, it disgusted me as a law student. And it disgusted even more that Audrey forgave this and got back with him.Also, the marriage thing looked very amateur to me. If their wedding in Ireland was just in church, how would the American media (and justice) consider them "legally bound" if they didn't sign any contract at all?But over all, the movie is quite interesting and worth a watch ;)
mjw2305 Audrey Woods (Julianne Moore) and Daniel Rafferty (Pierce Brosnan) are New Yorks finest divorce attorneys, but when celebrity Couple (Parker Posey and Michael Sheen) raise the stakes in their divorce, Audrey and Daniel set out to make their cases and end up getting hitched themselves. For the sake of their reputations they must pretend that they are really in love.Julianne Moore and Pierce Brosnan have a very good on-screen chemistry, and they are helped by some nice direction and a good script; there's plenty of laughs in this romantic comedy, but it's not a real tearjerker like some others in the genre.7/10 A fine effort
Kaitlin Donovan (tinybubbles8611) I absolutely loved this movie, Pierce Brosnan and Julianne Moore are the perfect on-screen couple! I personally bought this movie and watch it a lot, I watch it so much the DVD is getting messy. I am only 15 but a complete movie fanatic! Pierce Brosnan is to die for with his "Bond-like" charming ways when faced with a female co-star. No two people could have played these roles so well, (Except maybe Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn). Either way these two kept making me want more. I'm not one for much conversation, the film kept me spell bound, scene after scene it dragged me more in. I am also looking forward to one of Julianne's newest roles in the movie "Trust A Man", co-staring with David Duchovny (Another one of my favorites).
