    Synopsis:
    Power-suited, plugged-in advertising executive Nelson Moss speed-dials through life - and can`t imagine any other lifestyle. But bubbly eccentric Sara Deever - part temptress, part sage - can.

    If she has her way, Nelson will be the newest in her series of human reclamation projects. Each month she shares her heart and her apartment with a troubled man. No expectations. No pressure. No strings. No falling in love.

    Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron, cast as spouses in The Devil`s Advocate spark a warm chemistry again in Sweet November, gloriously shot all over San Francisco. Pat O`Connor (Circle Of Friends) directs this unabashedly romantic tale of lives not just changed by love… but made fuller, richer, sweeter.

    6 / 10
    An incredibly boring movie. In fact, it was so boring that I could not watch it "in one sitting" and it took me over a day to watch it in its entirety (while fast-forwarding its last 20 minutes).
    The video transfer is good. There are no compression signs nor there are scratches.
    The DD 5.1 soundtrack is flat. The surrounds are hardly ever used, but I guess it`s appropriate for this kind of a (boring!!!) drama.
    The menus are still with music.
    The extras include a behind the scenes look.
    Bottom line - better than the strongest sleeping pill, but can cause severe vomiting as a side-effect (due to the presence of Reeves). Avoid, please. A total BOMB.
