Let me start by saying that I did not see the Michael Caine version of this movie and understand this is a much revered version in the UK. Therefore, I have nothing to compare this movie with. However, I enjoyed it. It was slightly more exceptional than most movies about relationships because of Jude Law. He adds a depth that only a person can with real talent. He is surrounded by a good cast that also puts in good performances: Susan Sarandon, Sienna Miller, Nia Long, Jane Krakowski, and Marisa Tomei. The unexpected thing about this movie to me wasn't that it was necessarily just a man's movie. It was also very much a movie about friendships and women.
