New York City musician Mel (Matthew Modine) is a womanizer with serious commitment issues. Nonetheless, he tries for some intimacy by moving in with his girlfriend and subletting his apartment to an attractive biologist named Ginger (Gina Gershon). But, after living with his girlfriend goes awry, Mel negotiates to come back and live with Ginger. Although they argue at first, they eventually become close friends. These new circumstances puts Mel's Casanova ethos to the test.

Boston Globe

A fumbled attempt at modern romantic comedy.

Washington Post

Myers's script follows the official structural steps of romantic comedy -- we won't belabor you with the details -- but doesn't always heed the most obvious one: Be original.

The film isn't believable for a second.

It has its charms, and to those generally susceptible to well-done examples of genre, it'll probably be a delight.

Claudia Myers fills the movie with the rhythms, jokes and turning points of a sit-com or romantic comedy, making Kettle of Fish a delightful, funny, comfortable diversion

If only there were some spark between Modine and Gershon (who's hampered by an annoying and unnecessary English accent).

This was an adorable fluff movie. I would only recommend this for fans of silly romantic comedies.

Nice movie that represents the fear of people to be alone and that in many times a person misunderstood his/her feelings. The best reward is then realize what we really feel. I liked the movie anyway as it shows how totally different persons/species can be in love. Love is more than anything else that exists in our World.

Typical romantic comedy plot where guy meets girl, doesn't like her, becomes friends with her and . . . well, if you know the rest. Anyway, while this movie isn't the greatest romantic comedy I've seen in ages, it's probably one of the more realistic in that neither character is worth millions (they actually go to work and have jobs . . . gasp!) and they come across feeling closer to actual people. Still, it's predictable and, while watchable, it's not overly entertaining.
