In this comedy of misplaced expectations, two brothers (David Arquette and Tim Blake Nelson) living in the midwestern United States long for the old days when women followed traditional lives as wives and homemakers. When their mother passes away, the men realize how indispensable she had been around the house. Believing that they need a wife to take over where their mom left off, they travel to Russia seeking a woman (Emily Mortimer) to marry one of them--but all they really need is a housekeeper! [More]

For those who are easily pleased. Full Review |

It's Tim Blake Nelson's character who keeps the plot from spinning out of control, because he has a natural and unforced respect for these women that he yanks his brother's chain and keeps their mission on course. Full Review |

Spirited indie film that could be improved by a gifted editor. Full Review |
|||
|
Nelson's charisma keeps the film watchable, but there are few laughs or surprises. Full Review |

|
Good piece of work. Full Review |

|
In the end, it's not going to bother anyone, and it's funnier than it has a right to be. Just don't expect real comedic insight into the ways human beings stumble into love. Full Review |

|
Neither funny enough to be a comedy nor serious enough to pass for drama. Full Review |
|||
|
This is one case where the director would have been better off pointing his camera at real subjects. The truth, in this case, is almost sure to be stranger than the fiction. Full Review |

A competently assembled yet perplexingly affectless romantic comedy. Full Review |

|
Slight, but charming. Full Review |

|
A genial, generally amusing film. Full Review |

A Foreign Affair is an altogether enjoyable diversion, a light and clever comedy that offers some great performances in a unique setting. Plus it's about ten times more sincere and entertaining than what passes for romantic comedy these days. Full Review |
