Review of Love and Other Disasters (2006) by Chris S — 21 Jul 2010

Sadly too late, I've become a big Murphy fan. She had a pixieish quality that I find very seductive. This movie has many problems, not the least of which is that it is interminably boring. Lots and lots of talking heads with absolutely nothing going on.

Gossip about voluminous gay relationships (and a few straight ones too) is just not that interesting. The British humor must have bypassed my ability to care. Murphy shines through it all though. The in-story comparison to Audrey Hepburn worked well.

I've said it before, had Murphy chosen better scripts, she'd have conquered the film industry.
