"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME

Simply Irresistible | 1999 | PG-13 | - 3.1.2

Restaurateur Sarah Michelle Gellar tries to win Sean Patrick Flanery's heart through his stomach in this romantic comedy. Co-starring Patricia Clarkson, Dylan Baker, Christopher Durang, Larry Gilliard, Jr. and Betty Buckley.

SEX/NUDITY 3 - Sexual innuendo. Several passionate kisses and embraces; in one scene, a man briefly sucks a woman's fingers and then they kiss while dropping onto the floor (the scene ends before we see anything else). A man repeatedly pushes two female dolls against each other, pretending that they're kissing and embracing. We see a woman in her slip and several women wearing tiny or cleavage-revealing tops; we also see a man without pants (his shirt ends mid-thigh).

VIOLENCE/GORE 1 - A woman throws -- and breaks -- many plates. A man throws a knife into a wall and nearly hits someone.

LANGUAGE 2 - A couple anatomical references, a few scatological references (one is seen in a subtitle) and several mild obscenities.

DISCUSSION TOPICS - Falling in love, believing in yourself, being successful, paranormal experiences.

MESSAGE - Destiny happens; you can't fight what is meant to be.

CAVEATS

Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.

We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.

Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
