Alex And Emma (2003) 6/10

Starring : Kate Hudson, Luke Wilson, Sophie Marceau, Rob Reiner
Director : Rob Reiner
Running Time : 93 mins

Alex Sheldon (Wilson) is a wannabe novelist and gambler who has borrowed money from some loan sharks, and has to churn out a novel within thirty days or face their wrath! To help him do this he hires a stenographer named Emma Dinsmore (Hudson) under the pretence of working for a law firm, but soon they discover that their mutual input makes for a much more entertaining tale.

This movie was okay for what it was, but I think it really needed some fleshing out to be truly brilliant. Wilson and Hudson did a decent enough job in the lead roles, but this was nothing particularly special.
