PREVIEW




In this extremely smug-sounding British flick, Martin Freeman plays a dude disenchanted with his life who dreams of getting up on the woman of his dreams Penelope Cruz, as his marriage to his Mrs. (Paltrow) is currently in a bit of a lull. While the cast here is hugely impressive, you can probably put that down to the fact that Gwyneth's brother Jake is the director, and had sufficient clout through blood relatives to bag the likes of Pegg and Cruz. Don't get me wrong: there is every chance that I could be proven wrong, but I feel we've seen this type of film ('yuppie questions existence') numerous times before.
