Jude Law is a very busy boy these days. He has several movies out this year, but it is this one that will set him apart.

Alfie (Law) is a limo driver in New York City, riding around with a business plan under one arm and a married lady under the other. He is a dashing Brit bachelor, long on love and short on commitment. He lives to flirt, driving his Vespa (when he's not driving his limo) around New York, helmetless, so all of the women can check him out and drool.

As we know, from the 1960's classic with Michael Caine as Alfie, he has many conquests, but no real, true love. He has mastered the lines of seduction so well, that sometimes he even he can't tell when they've become blurred. He charms everyone; a housewife, a single mother, a gorgeous party girl enthralled by his British accent and a cosmetics queen, played beautifully by Susan Sarandon. In the film's sexiest scene, he even seduces his best friend, Marlon's (Omar Epps) girlfriend, Lonette (Nia Long). It is the repercussions from this tryst that contribute to Alfie's soul-searching in the end.

There are some wonderfully witty lines in this film. Add to that Law's ability to make talking to the camera seem like the most natural thing in the world, and you have a truly enjoyable movie. That is not to say that there weren't a few flaws. Marisa Tomei as the single mother that Alfie would be interested in, didn't fly for me. Also, I'm not sure Sienna Miller, as the beautiful but nuts girlfriend, would have stayed in Alfie's dumpy flat for as long as she did, I don't care how much she liked his accent.

Alfie is a funny, breezy film. Law is especially sexy, sultry and charming to watch. I'm not convinced, though, that it needs to be seen on the big screen.
