The bright, glossy world of Doris Day and Rock Hudson sex comedies gets a self-aware brush-up in Down with Love. Pillow-lipped Renée Zellweger (Chicago) plays Barbara Novak, the author of a bestselling book called Down with Love that advises women to focus on their careers and have sex à la carte--just like a man would. Determined to prove that Novak is just as vulnerable to love as any woman, dashingly chauvinist magazine writer Catcher Block (ever-charming Ewan McGregor, Moulin Rouge) pretends to be a courtly astronaut who wouldn't dream of putting his hand on a woman's knee. This piffle of a story seems like nothing more than an excuse for ironic double-entendres and dazzling production design, until a sneaky plot twist suddenly raises the stakes for the movie's end. As he always does, the brilliant David Hyde Pierce (Frasier) scores the most comic points as Block's fussy editor. --Bret Fetzer

- Downright FunWhen my sister, a Doris Day movie addict, told me I had to watch this with her, I didn't expect much. Once you've seen a Doris Day film, you've seen them all; couple this with the fact that I'm not a chick-flick kind of gal, and it's not surprising that I figured this was going to be a movie I would politely watch and then promptly forget.
I couldn't have been more wrong.
The world is a happy-go-lucky '60s joyride. Everything is a bright and colorful shade of "optimistic," ... Read More

- Brilliant comedyThis amazingly intelligent send-up of the Doris Day/Rock Hudson flicks is such a refreshing change from the mindless Hollywood romantic comedies of recent past. I would recommend that before viewing, you see at least one of the DD/RH hits (Pillow Talk would probably be best if you only have time for one). Then the sheer genius of this work will really shine through. This is one of the few films that I can watch over and over again without ever growing tired or bored of it. The rapid-fire witty lines ... Read More

- entirely forgettableThis piece of fluff was so forgettable that my wife and I were about half an hour into it before we realized we'd actually seen it before.
I'm giving it two stars because there were a couple of moments of witty, well-written dialogue, because the retro-early sixties fashions were mildly amusing and because David Hyde Pierce gives a funny performance. I also liked the faux-Gershwin music.
Apart from that, not much to object to or admire either. The leads don't have much chemistry ... Read More

- StupidDoris Day and Rock Hudson movies were no good the first time, with their split screen phone conversations and crossed wires. They never rose above a bad TV sitcom. So why would Hollywood producers do another one--not a spoof but a straight copy? Are there really no good new stripts available?
Renee Zellweger is a good actress and has done some good light comedy, as in "Nurse Betty." She's also done drama and musicals. Why she'd allow her talents to be wasted in a film like this is beyond ... Read More

- hilariousTotally hilarious and creative. I'm not a Rene Zelwegger fan (I am a big Ewan fan), but this was a great movie. Awesome ensemble cast. Very fun visually, very snappy dialogue. Definitely one you'll enjoy watching over again.
