| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 10, 2003

With remarkable grace, [Teplitzky's] actors balance the competing demands of candor and whimsy, and the result, while not unforgettable, is charming.

Runs out of impulse and falls back on glibness.

At times, Better Than Sex feels like Last Tango in Paris, with all the grunting and animalistic behavior but none of the raison d'etre.

It could be funnier, sharper, more probing, but at its best it is sexy, and that's always something to celebrate.

The director and actors get away with this fluff thanks to the nimble, whimsical way it's played.

| Nov 9, 2001

Continues for 84 minutes, short for a feature but too long for a commercial. And Mr. Teplitzky lacks the big-screen savvy to fill the surplus footage.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 27, 2001

The movie's only redeeming qualities are its stars, David Wenham and Susie Porter.

It's nice that Cin and Josh are free of hangups and neuroses, but too bad that their healthy, cheerful attitudes make them phenomenally boring.

Teplitzky appears to have cribbed from Cosmopolitan circa 1985.

| Oct 23, 2001

Basically an Antipodean reprise of When Harry Met Sally that sets its sights too low to be anything more than a pleasant diversion.
