Plot summary

Flighty Emily "Jacks" Jackson works for the British edition of Vogue magazine. Rather than pursue a relationship, Jacks regularly hooks up with her devoted ex-boyfriend, James Wildstone, and lives with Peter Simon, a gay screenwriter. When Jacks meets Argentinian photographer's assistant Paolo Sarmiento, she assumes he is gay and tries to bring him and Peter together, unaware that Paolo is straight and in love with her.

I wanted something light-hearted to watch and found this delightful gem. It's not going to satisfy those who like a lot of depth or drama, but as an entertaining easy to watch rom com it's perfect. When I read the reviews before watching it I was expecting something like Three to Tango, but this is so much better. There is a gay storyline, but it's not at all forced and just feels natural and lovely. Brittany Murphy is charming in every scene, Matthew Rhys is perfectly cast as the gay best friend who is always looking for love, Santiago Cabrera is suitably sexy as the Argentinian love interest, and Catherine Tate is very funny as an over-emotional, relationship crazy friend with mummy issues. Having said it's light hearted and not very deep, there are some very nice moments in here. Tate's character's mother initially comes across as shallow and silly, but is then happy to donate thousands to charity. And the resolution of the gay love story is beautifully written and performed, with the observation that love doesn't usually happen like a bolt of lightning - you have to choose to love. To sum up, I loved this film, have now watched it three times in the last two weeks and have ordered the DVD (from Germany as it's not available in the UK!).

I loved this. It maybe partly because having Britney Murphy in the film & I'm good with that. Such a nice, simple rom-com, nothing too crazy & as I've already stated it's Britney.
