By day, Richard Haig is a successful and well-respected English professor at renowned Trinity College in Cambridge. By night, Richard indulges his own romantic fantasies with a steady stream of beautiful undergraduates. But Richard has grown tired of the game and is looking for something more meaningful and lasting. So when Kate, Richard’s tanned, athletic, 25-year-old American girlfriend tells him that she is pregnant, Richard is thrilled. He looks forward to having a family of his own, being a father his children could be proud of, not some sex-fueled bobcat. There is only one problem. Richard’s not in love with Kate. Richard is in love with Kate’s sister, Olivia. He had been in love with her ever since he first saw her.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Really no matter how much plastic surgery Bronson has this is a it too much. no wonder it has a 1/10 on Metacritic, despite the obvious large number of shill reviews from its marketing company here

Hayek, Alba and Brosnan work it out. I didn't have any idea what I was expecting with this movie, but I was pleasantly surprised and pleased. It had some good humor, which is the COM part and it had some intimacy, which is the ROM part. That sums it up for ROMCOM. It is an enjoyable, light-heart-ed movie. It is also a great date flick. Of course, I adore my Latinas! The little boy was excellent in his role as well. The acting was great, especially the father's eye's when he looked at his son (Brosnan) with great intent. I've never seen such a piercing set of eyes with intensity. I rated this a bit higher to see if we can get it to a Solid 6 Stars. I don't care for enjoyable movies being below 6 Stars. If you like ROMCOM's, you will enjoy it as well.

We found this movie on Netflix streaming. I had low expectations but as the movie unfolded I found it quite entertaining.Pierce Brosnan (about 60) is Richard, a professor of poetry at Cambridge. His eye for the pretty woman was influenced by observing his philandering father from an early age. As this story unfolds we find that he has taken a liking to one of his American students, Jessica Alba (about 32) as Kate. Then we all are surprised to find out she is pregnant. She has a good job offer and is headed to Los Angeles.Their son is now about 2 or 3 and Richard doesn't want to be away from him so he moves to the USA also. Soon he finds that she is seeing someone on the side, a fellow her age, and when confronted tells Richard she was too young when they met, she married him because she needed a father figure, and wanted a divorce.As all this was unfolding we are introduced to her older sister, Salma Hayek (about 47) as Olivia. As things would develop Richard and Olivia start out roughly but when she sees how good a dad he is with his young son she takes a liking to him.Meanwhile Richard is getting into hot water with immigration, it seems he either has been ignoring their letters or writing "bollocks" on them and returning. So at some point he has to get his estranged wife to appear with him and try to keep his temporary visa, or get deported.All this get complicated when his dad, Malcolm McDowell (about 70) , Gordon, shows up in L.A. The cute kid is Duncan Joiner as Jake. Ben McKenzie is Brian, the young guy that Kate has been seeing for two years. SPOILERS: As it turns out Richard and Olivia do fall in love but he is rejected and gets deported. Unhappy teaching back in England he decides to travel to Mexico where he used his Hispanic lawyer's connections to sneak back into the USA. He and Olivia get together, and he gets a full-time teaching job at ULA.
