Director : John Hay
Running Time : 95 mins
When Archie Gray (Scott) stupidly decides to send a secret valentine to Alice Holbrook (Hewitt), the wife of his best friend Sam (Mistry), he sets off a chain of events that leads Alice, with the urging of her friend Flick (Mills), to send a secret valentine to her husband to see if he tells her about it. When he doesn’t, she decides to test him further by making a sexy call to him from an unlisted phone, and that’s when she starts to suspect him of having an affair…
For people expecting a romantic comedy, this is just a warning to say this isn’t really a comedy. It has the comedy music and the comedy characters, but the situation isn’t remotely funny, and Hewitt’s futile attempts to make her husband love her come off as desperate. Hewitt trying to be sexy is meant to be funny, but we’re talking about Jennifer Love Hewitt here, who could look sexy in sackcloth. The scenario isn’t that believable, and Hewitt should have dumped Mistry as soon as she realised what an arsehole he was. And I still don’t know why she apologised to the woman he was cheating on her with. Watch this for Hewitt in her undies, but don’t expect a decent plot.
