Men Play theiGame. Women Know theiScore.
In the great tradition of witty New York romantic comedies, David Duchovny and Julianne Moore star in this "sexy and sophisticated" (KBWB-TV) ensemble film about life, love and laughter in the big city. Overachieving actress, Rebecca (Moore), must come to grips with her failing marriage to stay-at-home dad, Tom (Duchovny). While Rebecca's slacker brother, Tobey (Billy Crudup), can't seem to commit to his aspiring novelist girlfriend, Elaine (Maggie Gyllenhaal). As both relationships spin out of control, the two couples embark on a hilarious quest to rediscover the magic and romance of falling in love in New York.

After watching the first 15 minutes of 'Trust the Man' you are lulled into the sense that you are actually watching an adult film about relationships. The dialogue is crisp and is helped tremendously by a very talented cast. However, the film descends into traditional romantic comedy territory by the second half and forgoes the intelligent route for a sappy ending. This is unfortunate because for a bit is was one of the best comedy films I had seen in a while. I also had issue with the conclusion of the film as I felt that some people did not get what they actually deserved.
This is an interesting watch for a couple who want a slightly more intelligent and rude romantic comedy to watch on a night in with some Pop Pop.

I loved the performances of all the cast in this extremely light rom-com (and I mean light) even the supporting cast were good. The standout though was David Duchovny who has impeccable comic ability and timing, he has proven in the past what a talented comedic actor he is, both with Larry Sanders and lighter episodes of the X-Files, in this film he really does shine. I can't wait to see his upcoming performance in The TV Set.
Anyway what let the film down for me though was the fact that it was neither funny nor clever, at times I felt the humour to be quite juvenile, which isn't always a bad thing in movies, I just felt that here it didn't work, especially the fart/ball punching jokes. I also felt that what we were seeing was just random scenes thrown together instead of something linear and progressive. Maybe that was the point but it felt really disjointed. Oh and the ending was really farcical and embarrassing.

I am afraid this movie is one of the most boring, slow and mind numbing I have had the misfortune to watch in a long time.. The cast are very "pretty", but that is all that can be said. Don't waste your time take a nice long soak in the bath instead.. Much more enjoyable..
