Quotes:
[Lucy brings Adam over to meet the family for the first time and Laura watches them enter from the corner]
Laura Owens: [voice over] Lucy said he was shy. He doesn't look shy to me. Why does she always delude herself? Oh, poor mum. So many boyfriends and she tries so hard to like them all. Even Martin. Well, she suffers him for Alice's sake. Whatever else I do, I won't make that mistake. Whatever else I do, nothing basically. Right, be nice.

One of the few Irish middle-class movies. DVD review.
A man gets intimate with his girlfriend's family.
Tame, light comedy that won't appeal to everyone but because it's set in Dublin I rather liked. I recall seeing Adam's car parked in Dame Street during filming. Interesting character played by Townsend, he's one of those people that can't do anything wrong. O'Connor goes over-the-top in her role as the student. For a romantic comedy it's very fast paced. Best scene comes at the very end.
About Adam is really straight-to-video material but is enjoyable enough.
