Nick Hamm (Talk of Angels) directed this U.K. romantic comedy following a group of British blokes and their encounters with an American woman in London. As Laurence (Joseph Fiennes, brother of Ralph Fiennes) narrates the tale to his neighbor, Dr. Pedersen (Ray Winstone), the scene flashes back to three days earlier: Laurence's friend Daniel (Tom Hollander) is in the Minneapolis airport on a business trip when he spots blonde Martha (Monica Potter of Con Air) buying a "first flight to anywhere."

Potter marks her ground as one of today's finest leading ladies
Enjoyable but uneven.
Even Julia [Roberts] and Hugh [Grant] would have had a hard time putting any spark into the two weakly drawn lovers at the heart of this film.
I would have liked to see Potter and Fiennes in a more straightforward love story without all the mechanical silliness.
Passable romantic comedy with a few problems. First of all the direction is choppy and the story rather nonsensical which is often the case for a rom-com but they should be based in some sort of identifiable reality, this isn't. All that would be forgivable if the you were enchanted by the central character. Monica

Laurence recounts to his neighbour how his life long friendship with Frank and Daniel has been overturned...Martha, meet Daniel Frank and Lawrence is a somewhat misunderstood film. For a start it's more of a man's romantic comedy as its three guys all falling in love with the same woman. It may be predictable but this
