{movie} i think i love my wife (2007)

In this contemporary retelling of director Eric Rohmer's cerebral 1972 film Chloe in the Afternoon, Chris Rock stars as Richard Cooper, a happily married man with a young daughter at home. Problem is, he fantasizes about other women -- and soon finds his fidelity tested when a friend's former paramour (Kerry Washington) enters the picture and puts the moves on Richard. Gina Torres portrays Rock's wife, Brenda.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: * (Actually 1.5) This one was REALLY disappointing. I was expecting more from a Chris Rock movie. His stand-up is great, his television show is great, but this movie...not so great! Not even that good. While I enjoy Rock and his supporting cast Kerry Washington and Gina Torres, even they couldn't save a weak script, a horrible story, and the worst pacing I think I've seen in a movie in quite awhile.
