Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Richard Cooper (Chris Rock) is a comfortable middle manager banker. But his marriage is running in problems. He doesn't have sex with his wife Brenda (Gina Torres) anymore, and they are fighting over it. Then a sexy past acquaintance Nikki (Kerry Washington) re-enters in his life and turns it upside down.I am a little shocked that the screenplay was written by Chris Rock, and Louis C.K. I didn't find any of it funny. It may have been too much for Chris Rock to write, direct, and star in this. First Chris Rock look horrible with the stache. The narration is annoying. But more importantly, the morality of this movie is too awkward. Chris and Louis are obviously trying to say something profound about marriage and life. It may have been a great 10 minute stand-up, but it doesn't make good rom-com. I won't spoil the ending, but it's less about love and more about fear.
This movie was really good. I have seen it on at least three occasions, and each time I am tearing up with laughter. I find it very easy to relate to, very real, and a good mix of serious story and good old fashioned comedy.The characters played by the various actors in the show were pretty much nailed, with Chris Rock, his wife, his best friend at work, the interested admirer, her ex ... they were all good.The interaction between the characters was really very well portrayed as well. It really is a good lesson for the young career man, how to conduct yourself when confronted with temptation, and the troubles you can find yourself in.Many of the quotes are priceless.Top stuff, a must watch. I can't wait to have an excuse to watch it again soon.
To start off with I'd think I'd have to disagree with most of the public here, I think it deserved more around a 6.5 point average on IMDb. I'm a comedy lover, and so when I heard about this movie I had to watch it and it exceeded my expectations after the movies I've seen recently, it was a great movie, great but not there amongst the best nor deserving a spot in the Top 250. Basically what it boils down to in my opinion is that if you like comedy movies, movies with a moral, or movies involving relationships then i say go for this movie, or if your just bored and have time on your hands then this will be a good way to spend some of it.
The suburban middle class investment banker and family man Richard Cooper (Chris Rock) has been married for eight years with his wife Brenda (Gina Torres) and they have two children. Their marriage is in crisis due to the lack of sex, and Richard is feeling completely bored and dreaming on having sex everywhere with other women. When his sexy single friend Nikki Tru (Kerry Washington) that he has not seen since he was single stumbles in his office in Manhattan asking for a recommendation letter for a job, Chris has lots of fun with her, but he omits her visit to Brenda. Nikki visits Richard on the next afternoons, jeopardizing his position and making Richard rethink about his choices in life."I Think I Love My Wife" is an entertaining movie about a universal situation the change of the sexual life between couples after years of marriage. Kerry Washington is extremely sexy and is perfect in the role of the smart single girl that uses her friendship seeking for fun. It is very pleasant to see the scenes with this gorgeous actress. Chris Rock plays a silly suburban character that fights for not cheating his wife. However the situations are inconsistent since Richard does not have sex with his wife and has daydreams with women; and when he meets a woman like Nikki he does not have sex with her? Brenda, performed by Gina Torres, is an unpleasant character with her denial of having sex. The moralist conclusion, with Richard and Brenda singing, is simply awful. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Acho Que Amo Minha Mulher" ("I Think I Love My Wife")
