Rosie (Michelle Pfeiffer), a 40-year-old divorced mother produces the has-been television comedy "You Go Girl," which seems doomed since her boss no longer allows the show to tackle any vaguely-controversial subjects. Then she meets Adam (Paul Rudd) , an attractive, spontaneously funny, single, 29-year-old actor at an audition. She successfully casts him, which revives the show's ratings.

That culminates when she suspects him of infidelity with the show's star, and the studio gives those two their own sitcom.

| Film4Holly Grigg-SpallAs an older woman who has built her career on a keen understanding of youth culture, she [Director Amy Heckerling] has a lot to say about Rosie's small world. |

| Film ExperienceNathaniel Rogersa rather ignominious defeat for a "comeback" performance from one of the great stars |
| User ReviewLouise Bits gd but isn't he a li bit young for her its rank |
| User ReviewBrittany VLOVED IT!!!!! I adored this movie to bits :) |
| User ReviewChristopher SPaul Rudd and Michelle Phieffer were surprisingly brilliant in this film. I loved Paul?s character. The whole storyline and the characters are just fantastic. |
| User ReviewCarolyn SNormally I get really creeped out with "cougar" movies...(and don't get me wrong I did with this one too) but Paul Rudd was so adorable!! This really was a great movie...(if only because of Paul) FIVE STARS FOR PAUL RUDD!!!!! |
