40 Days and 40 Nights Reviews

Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from this flick but since I have a weak spot for romantic comedies, I thought I might as well give it a try. Eventually, I thought the whole concept was pretty lame. I mean, to vow to not have sex for 40 days is fine and actually, I’m pretty sure much most of us would be able to stay easily without sex for this period of time (in fact, many of us stay months or even years alone). But it doesn’t stop here… Indeed, during this period of sex diet, of course, the main character falls in love and while any normal human being would just drop the whole thing, the guy keeps on going with his vow for no believable reason except to move on the plot. Still, the whole thing was not completely worthless. Indeed, Josh Harnett and Shannyn Sossamon were both terribly charming and had some pretty good chemistry, it is just too bad there were lost in such an abysmal tale. It is interesting to note that, at the time, Josh Harnett was predicted a bright future as the new Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise but, fast forward 10 years later, and he definitely did not fulfill these expectations. To conclude, even though I have seen worse, it remains a really weak romantic-comedy and I don’t  think it is really worth a look.
