If you are the type of person who believes in making every minute count, don't waste your time on this movie. I let my wife talk me into seeing this movie for a date night. Needless to say, she doesn't get... Full review

Actually, I think this is an excellent movie, and that with time critics will appreciate just how remarkable it is. First, it is a rarity in that it successfully updates an original that, while ahead of its time at its... Full review

Remakes are always a problem for the critic, whether or not he or she has seen the original. Here we have an American remake in 2004 of a British film made by Lewis Gilbert in 1966, itself an adaptation of... Full review
Memorable performance by Jude Law

The growth in character that Alfie undergoes throughout the movie is portrayed wonderfully by Jude Law in this film. Easily his greatest performance in a film. The visuals in this film were magnificent. For me, the monologue at the end of... Full review

This movie wasn't at all wonderful. It was boring to me and I ended up leaving the movie with my friend. I love Jude Law but I didn't particularly like this movie. There wasn't too much happening in it, so it... Full review

Jude Law's acting in this film is great, along with the supporting cast. This isn't a "warm and fuzzy" film, but more of true life and the reality behind it. This film had us laughing many times! Alphie is a winner!... Full review

I enjoyed meeting Alfie again. Hence, when Alfie gets his comeuppance, we don't feel for him as much as we would like. And while it's hard to replicate the pathos of the original, the very handsome Jude Law makes the remake eminently watchable. ... Full Review

Alfie" was a scandalous film that tackled a number of edgy subjects that only began with the issue of sexual promiscuity: Marital infidelity, illegitimate offspring and even abortion were all in play, none of which are considered particularly edgy today. ... Full Review

Otherwise, "Alfie's" nothing to get excited over. Feel so-so about Law and the movie falls flat on its face. Marisa Tomei is adorable as the single mom who only puts up with so much before she gives Alfie the boot. ... Full Review
