Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

blanche-2 "Prime" from 2005 is a sweet film starring Meryl Streep, Uma Thurman, and Bryan Greenberg. Uma plays Rafi, a 37-year-old woman who is recently divorced and hashing her misery out with her therapist, Lisa Metzger (Streep). She's thrilled when a week after her divorce, she meets an attractive younger man, 23-year-old David (Greenberg). The two flip out over one another. What she doesn't know is that David is her therapist's son, and she wants him to marry someone Jewish. When Lisa finds out, problems arise.This is a light, not uproariously funny comedy, with good performances and New York City locations. Religion isn't the only issue; there's the 14-year age difference, David's relationship with his mother, his mother's quandary about continuing to work with Rafi, and Rafi's desire to have a child. As one friend puts it, she's "on the clock." All of which are handled very well and not in a heavy duty way.I wish there were more films that dealt with older women and younger men. We usually see outrageously older men and younger women, and it's not an issue in the movie! Meryl Streep does a good job as a matronly Jewish mother; she has some funny scenes. Bryan Greenberg is very good as an aspiring artist still finding his way. But for me, it's Uma Thurman's film. I can't see her without recalling that when I lived in New York, I saw her then-husband, Ethan Hawke, all the time with their baby. She's luminous, she's gorgeous, and her acting is marvelous as her character goes through the misery of divorce and the glory of new love, evolving all through the film. She's wonderful.This is a good rental, very enjoyable.

kunal_modak-891-197246 Was one of the best love story that I have seen in long time. The characters in the movie are so defined. At one point you will loose your self in the movie. Do not resembles any other love story that I have seen the idea of the story looks original. The catch is not only the one person but all the characters in the movie are equally good. Uma therman dose look better than her age. Wittiness is one more part of its practical jocks. the best part is the movie is shot in real places & not in the sets. It looks too authenticity to get the feel of reality in it. To make it more spicy it has a smart twist in a middle to load the movie with an element of surprise.

fldelk-1 I realize this was a movie, but the idea that a counselor would continue to see a patient who was in a relationship with her son is so unethical I could not enjoy what few pleasures there were in this movie.I reduced my rating when I considered the "ick factor" of a mother discussing her son's penis with his lover.The best thing about the movie was the song at the end, "I Wish You Love," by Rachel Yamagata.SPOILER ALERT I will say I did appreciate the movie's refusal to go with the love conquers all ending. I don't like sad movies, but why no one makes movies with that exquisite pain of lost love like "The Way We Were."

Rodeo Bubbles Whiter It was watchable... just about. It isn't a really bad film, but it has practically no storyline, and it drags on WAY too long. Also the ending is rather terrible. I think it had a lot of potential to be a good film with the scenario that it revolves around... but the script and storyline was far too restricting and nothing happened throughout the whole film really. On top of this it made me feel like yelling at the characters for being annoying. I found that I just thought the film was a bit stupid and the characters were irritating. The cast was good, Uma Thurman and Meryl Streep both acted well as usual... but their talents were kinda wasted on this. All in all... it's pretty terrible to be honest.
