Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Inconsistent and politically correct
Review: The first half of this movie starts out promising; the 2nd half is not so good.
It becomes slowly predictable and stereotypical, whereas it started out charming and promising.
Of particular annoyance is the ending, where we find the hackneyed politically-corret stereotype of the husband having to admit culpibility for all the wrongs of the couple's separation, and the woman never having to admit her half of the bargain, despite the fact that she was clearly as poor a communicator as he.

Indeed, the wife's character is strikingly uneven in this movie: her personality appears to be one thing in the first half of the movie, but she seems to become a whole different person by the second half. Quite inconsistent.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It's an okay movie...
Review: The performances are good...I liked Ewan Proclaimer. The jokes in the movie are sometimes oddly placed and sometimes the flow of the movie gets interrupted, like the bit about the dog turd in the park. It also contains one of those lines I never thought I would ever hear. Rowan Atkinson is probably the best in the film, even though his performance reeks of Blackadder. I suppose that is acceptable here, since this was written by Ben Elton and stars the Honourable Lieutenant George Colthurst St. Barleigh himself.
