Laws of Attraction

LAWS OF ATTRACTION (2004) - April 30, 2004
A somewhat mediocre romantic comedy. Pierce Brosnan and Julianne Moore play two opposing divorce lawyers who, after a lot of bickering, wind up falling in love. Brosnan and Moore are both really good, and have good chemistry, and yet something just doesn't work in this movie. I can't really put my finger on it. It was too long, despite being under 90 minutes, which doesn't help. Most of the time the dialogue was fine, but sometimes it felt like the writers were trying a little too hard to be clever. The movie have been worse, but considering how good the two leads were, it certainly could have been better. **1/2
