Jude Law undoubtedly captures the character of Alfie, the carefree playboy womaniser. Although not as good as the original, this remake is pretty good.
Packed with sexy women, Alfie takes us on a journey through his life of fun, excitement, disappointment and hurt and Jude Law's performance is truly top-notch, so much so you can't help but love his character, in-spite of his shallow morales.
With a limited appeal, Alfie certainly targets a specific audience, all of whom probably need to be Jude Law fans to begin with.
Alfie is a film that you could easily hate, but I was compelled from the opening scene to the end, and I found beneath all the cold hearted antics a heart warming story and character that was good fun to watch.
7/10
