This movie reminded me a lot of "Arsenic and Old Lace." I don't really know why. Except for the dead body. I am a big fan the Carl Reiner and his son Rob Reiner.. I believe that their contribution to the America Cinema is incommensurable. Bill Pullman (Zero Effect) does a wonderful job playing really clumsy people. Carrie Fisher (Sleepless in Seattle) is great playing the snobbish pain in the neck sister in law. The script is funny! I ran into this movie by coincidence. One of those on sale type things and I found a great little funny movie. I recommend it!
There are times when I just need mental popcorn, so If you are looking for a silly movie, this is it. I love this movie - it's got some great lines and Sam Elliott. This amazing cast is a trivia lover's dream: Rebecca from Cheers, Princess Leia, Beckett from Quantum Leap, Al Bundy, Muffy from Square Pegs, the husband from Maude and more. Bill Pullman is a great supporting actor.
I want Sam Elliott's voice to make love to me. To this day, there are times I remember that line "It wasn't sex, it was GOOD!"
I give it 8 out of 10 stars for it's genre: chick flick romantic comedy.

I watched this because I really like Kirstie Alley, not thinking it'd be too good. But the laughs kept coming. Just when you think things couldn't get more awkward another silly scenario comes along. Like the TV show Three's Company, but actually funny. Not a bad hour and a half, I give it 7 out of 10.
This movie is the worst thing one could waste their time on. I have to disagree with the people who call this film 'good entertainment' and 'funny' for my friend and I do not feel quite the same way. We too 'ran into the movie by coincidence' but we were walking around or local video store looking for a random movie rather than shopping the bargain bins at the local K-Mart. We took the movie home and watched it, but did not happen to find 'a great little funny movie.' In fact, if the video hadn't been property of the video store, my friend and I would have taken the tape out back and burned it in effigy right at the credits started to roll. This movie was that bad.
If you like Kirstie Ally you will enjoy this movie. You wont go away any smarter than you were before, but that isn't what I watch movies for. It is about a repressed wife (Kirstie) of a doctor who is more married to his family than to her. Her irrepressible sister (Jamie Gurtz) convinces her that she should have an affair to spice up her life. When she follows that advice it sets off a chain of events that, if you have any sense of humor at all, will bring on the chuckles. I would recommend this picture to anyone wanting to fill in an hour and a half with some light and uncomplicated entertainment. 6/10 would be about right for the genre.

- Alternative VersionenIn a scene only shown on cable, right before Harry tells Marjorie he thinks his brother didn't commit suicide, Nick shows up at the Turners' house and he and Marjorie talk about how guilty they feel, although it was neither person's fault. Then Marjorie explains that she doesn't want to leave her husband because she is afraid of being alone.
