  • Starring: Kate Hudson, Stuart Townsend
  • Summary: Temptation takes on a wickedly delicious new flavor in About Adam, as every character is seduced...all by the same mysterious man: the sinfully sweet Adam (Townsend). Like his Garden of Eden counterpart, this sexy modern Dubliner has become the apple of one woman's (Hudson) eye --and everyone else's forbidden fruit. (Miramax Films) Expand

    Unlike "Four Weddings," which ultimately was moralistic and conservative in its message --—About Adam is a frolic free of any judgments, and marked by Stembridge's sparkling wit.

    Kate Hudson's accent is spot-on, and she brings her megawattage to good use on the Gershwin standard, "The Man I Love."

    Writer-director Gerard Stembridge keeps the amoral laughs bubbling.
  4. 60
    Simply a pleasant diversion rather the paean to crazy-in-love classics it would so like to be.
